render/drm_format_set: add special case for LINEAR-only formats
Our wlr_format_set structs don't hold GBM usage flags. Instead, users
who want to get a LINEAR buffer can use the DRM_FORMAT_MOD_LINEAR
modifier even if the kernel driver doesn't support modifiers.
Add a special case to wlr_drm_format_intersect to properly handle this
situation.
