It's for abstraction we already have. Most of video subsystem doesn't
care whether render_target is framebuffer, OpenGL or network commands.
In this particular case we know that we're rendering to a framebuffer
and so function
do_something (grub_video_render_target *my_render_target);
like it's used by upper layers is inded the same as
do_something (grub_video_fbrender_target *my_render_target);
and not e.g.
do_something (grub_video_glrender_target *my_render_target);
