R200 TV out support

Hanno Böck started an approach on changing the license of the gatos TV out code from GPL to MIT/X11. He finally had success and is now planning on merging the patch into the X11 driver. The patch needs some adjustments to work with latest git and needs some review by someone with knowledge of R200 hardware. This patch only helps R200 hardware, R3xx is not covered by this patch.

Anyway, good job Hanno!

So I've got a Radeon Mobility 7500 in my Thinkpad T30, which is apparently the RV200 hardware. Does this mean that at some point in the near future, I'll be able to better control the TV output?

(currently, it won't output to TV unless the TV is connected at boot time)

Guess not... the RV200 is actually R100-based hardware. Oh well.
