gallium: add PIPE_FLUSH_DEFERRED
There are 2 uses: - Asynchronous flushing for multithreaded drivers. - Return a fence without flushing (mid-command-buffer fence). The driver can defer flushing until fence_finish is called. This is required to make Bioshock Infinite faster, which creates 1000 fences (flushes) per frame.
