[PATCH weston] compositor-fbdev: make copy of the device string

[Pekka Paalanen]

From: Pekka Paalanen <pekka.paalanen at collabora.co.uk>

Ensuring that the pointer to the device path stays valid gets harder and
harder with migrating to the libweston-style config handling. Therefore,
make a copy of the string, private to struct fbdev_output.

Now the pointer passed in to fbdev_output_create() could be freed right
after the call returns.
