Support non-root gdev with render nodes
Close #30 Leveraging newly added DRM *render nodes* architecture, DRM can restrict the priviledges to render nodes with file based permission. So, by opening splitted `/dev/dri/renderD%d` device file, if the user have permission to this file, the user can execute GPGPU applications without root permission. Currently, typically, `video` group is allowed to access this device file. So by adding the user to `video` group, the non-root user can use gdev.
