Add support to convert XR24 and 8-bit grayscale to reversed monochrome for
drivers that control monochromatic panels, that only have 1 bit per pixel.

The drm_fb_gray8_to_mono_reversed() helper was based on the function that
does the same in the drivers/gpu/drm/tiny/repaper.c driver.

In practice, all mode widths are multiples of 8 because VGA mandated it.
So it's ok-ish to assume this here. You should probably at least print a
warning somewhere if (pixels % 8 != 0)

Not sure if it's relevant, but 1366x768 was a fairly popular laptop
resolution. There's even a dedicated drm_mode_fixup_1366x768 in
drm_edid.c. (Would it have killed them to add 2 more horizontal
pixels? Apparently.)

D'oh!

Do you know how the text console looks in this mode? Fonts still expect a multiple of 8.

Best regards
