[PATCH v2 1/4] drm/drm_blend: Allow specifying blend mode default

Not all devices support pre-multiplied blend mode. In these cases,
userspace cannot expect this mode to be the default, since the hardware
cannot produce it (and could not default to it before a blend mode
property existed). Therefore, add a variant of
drm_plane_create_blend_mode_property that allows specifying the default.
