terminal: fix mode sync for connectors
The GETXY ioctls of DRM are usually called twice by libdrm: Once to
retrieve the number of objects, a second time with suitably sized buffers
to actually retrieve all objects. In grdrm, we avoid these excessive calls
and instead just call ioctls with cached buffers and resize them if they
were too small.
However, connectors need to read the mode list via EDID, which is horribly
slow. As the kernel still cannot do that asynchronously (seriously, we
need to fix this!), it has a hack to only do it if count_modes==0. This is
fine with libdrm, as it calls every ioctl twice, anyway. However, we fail
horribly with this as we usually never pass 0.
Fix this by calling into GETCONNECTOR ioctls twice in case we received an
hotplug event. Only in those cases, we need to re-read modes, so this
should be totally fine.
