I ended up reading around a bit, and it feels like the sub-objects might
make a reasonable private state structure perhaps. Like dc_stream_state,
at least when reading around in e.g. dc_remove_stream_from_ctx.

But would need to come up with a plan how to integrate this on the other
os side of DC I guess :-)

Anyway I'd say more evidence that dc_state needs to subclass
drm_atomic_state.

Another thing I wondered is whether we should rename drm_atomic_state to
drm_atomic_state_update, so it's clear it's the container with the updated
states, not a real state object thing itself.
