Caterina Shablia 3aecd55af5 drm: add ARM interleaved 64k modifier
This modifier is primarily intended to be used by panvk to implement
sparse partially-resident images with better map and unmap
performance, and no worse access performance, compared to
implementing them in terms of U-interleaved.

With this modifier, the plane is divided into 64k byte 1:1 or 2:1
-sided tiles. The 64k tiles are laid out linearly. Each 64k tile
is divided into blocks of 16x16 texel blocks each, which themselves
are laid out linearly within a 64k tile. Then within each such
16x16 block, texel blocks are laid out according to U order,
similar to 16X16_BLOCK_U_INTERLEAVED.

Unlike 16X16_BLOCK_U_INTERLEAVED, the layout does not depend on
whether a format is compressed or not.

The hardware features corresponding to this modifier are available
starting with v10 (second gen Valhall.)

No changes since v2

Changes since v1:

* Rewrite the description of the modifier to be hopefully unambiguous.
