[Intel-gfx] [PATCH i-g-t 4/5] lib/igt_kms: Fix memory corruption when there's no cursor plane

The dynamic plane support means that if there's no cursor plane, then
there is no space in the pipe->planes array for it, and thus assigning
a "drm_plane-less" plane is out-of-bounds and leads to heap corruption
and later crashes.

The "drm_plane-less" cursor plane isn't included in n_planes anyway,
which means there's no way to ever access it/know that it's there - so
just remove it entirely.
