egl/dri: don't expose configs with an accumulation buffer

Thanks;

Assuming it's legal not to expose them, it would certainly be nice.
Accumulation buffers only exist in legacy GL (neither core profile nor
GLES have ever had them), and our GLX implementation has marked them
as "SLOW" for at least 12 years.
Right, I guess the only issue here is that even if you happen to have
such buffer (capability?) in the visual it does not necessarily mean
that it is in use. This change will remove all such configs, I'm not
sure if that is generally a problem though, I guess it is up to the
driver what it wants to expose.
I'm asking this because this patch causes a problem in internal project
where they simply revert this patch currently, I will query more but I
don't think they use such legacy feature.
I don't recall the details, but I think it was some awful software
fallback. At any rate, I've never seen an application use them.
