drm/xe: Enforce correct user fence signaling order using

Prevent application hangs caused by out-of-order fence signaling when
user fences are attached. Use drm_syncobj (via dma-fence-chain) to
guarantee that each user fence signals in order, regardless of the
signaling order of the attached fences. Ensure user fence writebacks to
user space occur in the correct sequence.

v7:
 - Skip drm_syncbj create of error (CI)
