output: don't trigger a frame immediately in schedule_frame

This desynchronizes our rendering loop with the vblank cycle.

In case a compositor doesn't swap buffers but schedules a frame,
emitting a frame event immediately enters a busy-loop.

Instead, ask the backend to send a frame when appropriate. On
Wayland we can just register a frame callback on our surface. On
DRM we can do a no-op pageflip.

Fixes #617
Fixes swaywm/sway#2748
