drm_atomic: Add general primary/overlay plane option
Add general primary/overlay plane option to drm-osd-plane-id and drm-video-plane-id, so that the user can just request any usable primary or overlay plane for either of these two options. This should be somewhat more user-friendly (especially as neither of these two options currently have a useful help function), as usually you would only be interested in the type of the plane, and not exactly which plane gets picked.

+ - the `--drm-osd-plane-id` and `--drm-video-plane-id`
+ options now accept either an integer index, or the values primary or overlay.
+ `--drm-osd-plane-id` now defaults to primary and `--drm-video-plane-id`
+ defaults to overlay. This should be similar to previous behavior on most drivers
+ due to how planes are usually sorted.
- rename --opensles-frames-per-buffer to --opensles-frames-per-enqueue to
better reflect its purpose. In the past it overrides the buffer size the AO
requests (but not the default/value of the generic --audio-buffer option).
