[PATCH weston] rpi: fix segfault at startup in rpi_flippipe_init() v2

From: John Sadler <deathofathousandpapercuts at gmail.com>

When running with the RPi backend, Weston now segfaults at startup on the
line:

    flippipe->clk_id = output->base.compositor->presentation_clock;

in `rpi_flippipe_init()`.

This is because `output->base.compositor` is NULL. This problem did not
exist on 1.8.0, and it looks like it may have been introduced by 954f183e2f.

This commit ensures that the `compositor` is initialised in `rpi_backend`
and that flippipe init uses the compositor pointer from backend.

Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91885

Changes in v2:
- fix summary to not break the build
- use output->backend->compositor in rpi_flippipe_init() instead of
  output->base.compositor. The latter is set by weston_output_init()
  which gets called later than rpi_flippipe_init().

Hi John,

a good find! I adjusted this patch a bit. If you can give a Tested-by
for the v2, I can push this.

Thanks,
pq
