I was thinking that we might get away with reusing the current props and
just change the interpretation of the data when gamma_mode is set. But
I'm not sure that's going to work out so well if one client sets this up
and then another client comes along that doesn't understand the new
props at all. But even with separate props I think we might still end up
in a mess because the new client wouldn't know how to unset the higher
precision LUT before setting up the old style prop and the kernel would
then refuse the operation with with both props being set.
So I think we might need a client cap for this which simply changes how
the data in the existing props is represented. So internally we could
always store things in the new high precision format, but we'd convert
to/from the old format when dealing with an older client.
