For shared non-scanout surfaces, the plan is:
- allocate DCC as part of the main buffer (like FMASK)
- pass the DCC offset and info between processes using libdrm_amdgpu
buffer metadata
- DCC fast clear must be disabled (we can't send dirty flags between processes)

For shared scanout surfaces, if the texture dimensions are not equal
to a known display resolution:
- use non-displayable tiling ==> enables DCC for 2D acceleration
