Title: "mesa" platform is no longer accurate and needs renaming Status in Mir: Fix Released Status in mir package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Our "mesa" code and packages mostly represents support for DRM/DRI output. And the only use case for this till now also used Mesa for the libGL* implementation. This is no longer true however. With Nvidia and AMD soon to release DRM support in their proprietary drivers, we will be supporting them. These drivers will provide DRM display access, but as usual will probably provide their own custom libGL* implementations. So won't use Mesa. This should work for Mir. However when a vendor provides their own libGL*, we are technically no longer using Mesa at all. We will still be using the "mesa" code path in Mir though. So that all needs renaming to something more accurate like "drm" or "dri" etc. Not "mesa".
