mesa: VGEM is needed for llvmpipe/softpipe

Well, it's not just a performance issue. Without it loaded (i.e. if
it's a module it has to be loaded manually) glxgear just fails to start.

    294         is not strictly needed but recommended as an optimization.

     294        <option>CONFIG_DRM_VGEM</option> is required or X clients may fail
     295        to start with a cryptic message <computeroutput>Error: couldn't get
     296        an RGB, Double-buffered visual</computeroutput>.  Strictly speaking,
     297        it can be compiled as a module.  But the module will not be loaded
     298        automatically, so it's more convenient to build it as a part of the
     299        kernel image.
