drm_hwcomposer: Choose client layer range to achieve minimal GPU load

1. Allow CLIENT layer at any position.
2. Check all possible layer combination and choose most efficient
   based on total pixel operations value.

Use case 1 - Layer count is greater than available planes
Table shows difference before and after this commit for 4 or 2 planes cases:

```
z_order   layer      size        pixels  before(4)  after(4) before(2) after(2)
-
0         Wallpaper  1960x1080   2MiP    CLIENT     DEVICE   CLIENT    DEVICE
1         Launcher   1960x1080   2MiP    CLIENT     DEVICE   CLIENT    CLIENT
2         Status bar 1960x80     0.15MiP DEVICE     DEVICE   CLIENT    CLIENT
3         Nav. bar   1960x80     0.15MiP DEVICE     CLIENT   CLIENT    CLIENT
4         Cursor     24x24       576P    DEVICE     CLIENT   DEVICE    CLIENT

Total pixels merged by CLIENT (GPU)      4MiP  ->   0.15MiP  4.3MiP -> 2.3MiP
```

Use case 2 - Unsupported layer type in the middle (Dim layer, etc):
