Crostini software rendering with virtio-gpu and Xwayland w/o shm option

Project Member Reported by davidri...@chromium.org, Oct 4

Issue description

With virtio-gpu enabled and Xwayland started without the -shm option, GL apps (such as glxgears) do not work when forced to software rendering via LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=true env variable.

Status update:

With you have GPU enabled for crostini and start an application with "sommelier -X glxgears" you'll get software rasterization and proper display.

If you start an application with "LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=true glxgears" you'll get the swrast driver being used and a blank window.  Frames still report being shown.
Exciting progress!
