drm/vmwgfx: Add an option to change assumed FB bpp
Offer an option for advanced users who want larger modes at 16bpp. This becomes necessary after the fix: "Work around mode set failure in 2D VMs." Without this patch, there would be no way for existing advanced users to get to a high res mode, and the regression is they will likely get a black screen after a software update on their current VM.
