Konsta Hölttä ca1f93bdd7 gpu: nvgpu: add user fence type
Decouple the fence information needed for providing submit postfences to
userspace by adding a separate type for that and using it to pass fence
data to ioctls.

The data in struct nvgpu_fence_type is used in various places:

- job tracking needs to know when a post fence is expired
- job submitters within the driver (vidmem clears) need to be able to
  wait for these fences
- userspace needs the fence as an id, value pair or as a file descriptor
  created from an os fence

To keep object lifetimes strict, start decoupling the os fence data out
of struct nvgpu_fence_type: delete nvgpu_fence_install_fd() and add
nvgpu_fence_extract_user() to return a struct nvgpu_user_fence that
contains only the necessary information. Storing the os fence in job
tracking metadata is legacy code and not useful. Passing the os fence
from where it's created through the whole submit path inside this
combined fence type has been convenient, though.

The internally stored cde job fence in dmabuf compression metadata is
still nvgpu_fence_type to keep this patch simple.
