aports: add kmscube for testing kernel modesetting

Administrator requested to merge zhuowei:package-kmscube into master

Created by: zhuowei

kmscube is a command line utility for testing KMS-capable GPU drivers, which may be useful for validating DRM rendering and OpenGL ES acceleration capabilities required by accelerated Weston/KWin on supported devices.

I don't have a KMS capable device to test, so I made sure this works by

  • installing mesa-dri-intel in the chroot_native
  • mounting my host /dev and /sys into chroot_native
  • switching to a different VT on my (Intel Haswell integrated graphics) host
  • running kmscube

which shows a spinning cube on screen.
