As proposed in a previous discussion [1], detect IGD devices based on
whether it has VFIO_REGION_SUBTYPE_INTEL_IGD_OPREGION exposed by kernel
and enables OpRegion access by default. This enables out-of-the-box
display output support for IGD passthrough without having to manually
set x-igd-opregion=on, which probably saves effort for libvirt users.

This patchset also limits legacy mode to Gen6-9 devices, as Intel no
longer provides CSM support and VBIOS on newer IGD, and Seabios does not
support setting up the 64 bit BDSM register on Gen 11+ devices. Exposing
VGA ranges to guests by default on platforms without VGA mode support is
undesirable.

Additionally, as we enables OpRegion on IGD devices by default, and
Intel removes the BDSM register from Meteor Lake [2]. There seems to be
no extra register quirks rather than OpRegion required on newer devices.
To support them (and probably future devices), the generation limit is
removed, with BDSM quirk only applied to known Gen 6-12 devices. 

Note: I have not been able to test this on Meteor Lake or newer
platforms due to lack of hardware.
