weston-init: use the drm/kms backend rather than fbdev one for qemux86 machines
The fbdev backend is not documented, and not the default; as the emulated hardware in qemu now supports DRM/KMS (both std and virtio), we should align with upstream default and vast majority of users. Empty init file will cause weston to default to the KMS backend. Note that 3D acceleration via virgl is not required; the backend renders fine via the software driver in mesa. However, kvm is more or less required to keep the UI responsive. Also, other qemu targets (mips and arm in particular) continue to use the fbdev backend, as in the absence of kvm, the performance of software GL paths falls to unacceptable level.
