modesetting: Enable TearFree by default 

TearFree support has been available in the modesetting driver for a year
with no issues reported. The code is mature and robust, with error handling
that's been vetted across many hardware configurations.

Notably, TearFree is also the only way to achieve a tear-free desktop with
mismatched displays and transformed CRTCs.

Enable TearFree by default for a smooth desktop experience out of the box.
