It made sense when there was a pixman and a bblit renderer. Now the only supported possibilities are:

| gpu backend | text renderer |
+-------------+---------------+
| fbdev + bbulk |
| drm2d + bbulk |
| drm3d + gltex |
+-------------+---------------+

gltex can only work with drm3d, and with the damage support, bbulk doesn't work anymore with drm3d, so this parameter is not useful.

Fix #219

It made sense when there was a pixman and a bblit renderer.
Now the only supported possibilities are:

| gpu backend | text renderer |
+-------------+---------------+
|   fbdev     +    bbulk      |
|   drm2d     +    bbulk      |
|   drm3d     +    gltex      |
+-------------+---------------+

gltex can only work with drm3d, and with the damage support, bbulk
doesn't work anymore with drm3d, so this parameter is not useful.
