drm/ttm, drm/amdgpu: Allow the driver some control over swapping

We are calling the eviction_valuable driver callback at eviction time to
determine whether we actually can evict a buffer object.
The upcoming i915 TTM backend needs the same functionality for swapout,
and that might actually be beneficial to other drivers as well.

Add an eviction_valuable call also in the swapout path. Try to keep the
current behaviour for all drivers by returning true if the buffer object
is already in the TTM_PL_SYSTEM placement. We change behaviour for the
case where a buffer object is in a TT backed placement when swapped out,
in which case the drivers normal eviction_valuable path is run.
