For DRM render nodes, they are opened with the 'open' system call directly by
components such as mesa, etc now, and the minor number should be specified with the
new drmOpenRender function.

The following two patches add two new functions to open DRM device with the specified
node type, and the minor number is transparent to the callers.

Jammy Zhou (2):
  Add new drmOpenWithType function (v3)
  Add new drmOpenOnceWithType function (v2)
