refactor(linux): simplify GPU-vendor detection for DMA-BUF toggle

Follow-up on #217. Blind A/B test on NVIDIA + proprietary confirmed the
toggle helps, but the detection path had a few rough edges.

- Drop lspci and glxinfo fallbacks: the /proc/driver/nvidia/version +
  sysfs scan catch every realistic case, and spawning subprocesses in
  main() added startup latency for no win (glxinfo also isn't always
  installed — mesa-utils isn't a hard dep).
- Scan all /sys/class/drm/card* entries via read_dir instead of
  hardcoded card0/card1 — hybrid laptops and systems where only card1
  exists were previously missed.
- Remove 0x1022 from the AMD list: that's AMD's host/chipset vendor ID,
  not GPU. Only 0x1002 (ATI/Radeon) belongs here.
- Unknown vendor → leave WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER unset instead
  of forcing =1. VMs, ARM SBCs and anything exotic keep the WebKitGTK
  default and do not get regressed by a guess.
- Only set the env var for the NVIDIA case. Intel/AMD on Mesa already
  default to DMA-BUF enabled in current WebKitGTK, so the explicit =0
  was redundant.
