xserver-xorg: import distro patch to use modesetting driver on newer hardware

Debian and Fedora both carry this patch, and the xf86-video-modesetting
driver seems better on recent hardware.

As an example, on a NUC6CAYS, the x11perf -aa10text and -rgb10text tests
see around a 20x increase.

+Subject: [PATCH] xf86pciBus.c: use Intel ddx only for pre-gen4 hardware
+
+Use intel ddx only on pre-gen4 hw, newer ones will fall back to modesetting
+Author: Timo Aaltonen <tjaalton@debian.org>
+
+Instead of defaulting to the Intel driver for all Intel hardware, only
+default it for older hardware for which it has shown to be better for.
+
+Others fall through to the -modesetting default.

+Upstream-Status: Pending [Debian/Fedora patch
