    lib/igt_core.c: disable lowmemorykiller during tests

    Several IGT tests cycle through a lot of GEM memory and
    when running these tests on Android they tend to get
    killed by the lowmemorykiller. The lowmemorykiller really
    is not usefull in this context and is just preventing the
    test from doing its job. This commit adds a function to
    disable the lowmemorykiller by writing "9999" to its
    oom adj parameter, which means it will never "select"
    any process to kill. The normal linux oom killer is still
    there to protect the kernel.
    The low memory killer is disabled during the common
    init function and then re-enabled by the exit handler.
    To make this work for single tests the exit handler is now
    installed in the common init function also so that it is
    invoked for all tests.
    This is just a hack to get round the fact that the i915
    driver uses the concept of purgeable memory which is not
    understood by the lowmemorykiller. If this ever gets
    fixed then this patch can be removed.

    [danvet: A bit of polish (coding style, static and rename
    check_igt_exit to common_exit_handler, drop the is_disabled check
    since we only call this once now).]
