xf86-video-savage: (2/2) Do not use XAAGetCopyROP outside of XAA-specific code

The DRI code attempts to use XAAGetCopyROP without checking whether XAA
or EXA is in effect. This results in the server crashing with an
undefined-symbol error when enabling EXA, then starting glxgears under
GNOME/Metacity and attempting to drag the glxgears window.
The EXA code happens to have a functional duplicate of the required code
under the name SavageGetCopyROP(). This patch moves the code to
savage_accel.c where it is now shared between EXA and the DRI code.
It is disturbing that this has not been caught before...
Just out of curiosity, how many subscribers of this list have access to
a Savage chipset, besides myself? Is the Savage EXA code being exercised
in the wild?
I followed the steps at http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/AccountRequests
in order to get commit access for xf86-video-savage, and opened
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20727 for the required
information. No reply has yet been received. Is there anything else missing?
