User space supplies rectangles for damage clipping in a plane property.
For full mode sets, drivers still require a full plane update. In this
case, leave the information as-is and set the ignore_damage_clips flag
instead. The damage iterator will later ignore any damage information.

Also fixes a bug where ignore_damage_clips was not cleared across plane-
state duplications.

Leaving the damage information as-is might be helpful to drivers that
benefit from this information even on full modesets (e.g., for cache
management). It will also help with consolidating the damage-handling
logic.

Also add a new unit test that evaluates the ignore_damage_clips flag. It
sets two damage clips plus the flag and tests if the reported damage
covers the entire framebuffer.

v4:
- slightly reword the commit description

I would split this as a separate patch since is the bug you are fixing for
commit 35ed38d58257 ("drm: Allow drivers to indicate the damage helpers to
ignore damage clips").

This makes sense to me as well and I agree that re-using the flag for this
is better than making plane_state->fb_damage_clips == NULL the condition.

As mentioned though, I would make it a separate patch. Both changes look
good to me:
