Add Y10_LE32, a 10 bit greyscale format, with 3 pixels packed into
32-bit container.

Well, this is all somewhat beside the point. So is "_Y10_32" (or
"_R10_32" if we use R) fine?

IAARDD[*], but "10_32" makes me think it stores one 10-bit pixel in a
32-bit word (i.e. a 32-bit variant of R10). So [YR]PA4 would be better.

That would be a very silly format. So I think some HW guy is already designing chips that have it.

[YR]10_PACKED_32? We can have longer names, we don't need to do encoding like [YR]PA4.

[*] I am a rookie DRM developer...

I haven't heard that before...
