[igt-dev] [PATCH i-g-t] Make force work with multiple drivers available

The force option allows users to specify which driver they want that IGT
uses. Nonetheless, if the user has two or more loaded drivers in his
system, the force option will not work as expected because IGT will take
the first driver found at /dev/dri. This problem can be reproduced in a
QEMU VM that using Bochs and VKMS. This patch handles this scenario by
ensuring that IGT uses the forced module specified via IGT_FORCE_DRIVER.
