The pixel_read_direction enum is useful to describe the reading direction
in a plane. It avoids using the rotation property of DRM, which not
practical to know the direction of reading.
This patch also introduce two helpers, one to compute the
pixel_read_direction from the DRM rotation property, and one to compute
the step, in byte, between two successive pixel in a specific direction.
