xf86drm: Allocate drmDevicePtr's on stack

Currently we dynamically allocate 16 pointers and reallocate more as
needed.

Instead, allocate the maximum number (256) on stack - the number is
small enough and is unlikely to change in the foreseeable future.

This allows us to simplify the error handling and even shed a few bytes
off the final binary.

v2:
 - add a define & description behind the magic 256
 - report error to strerr and skip when over 256 device nodes
