Revert "weston: Drop priviledges early, and seteuid when needed"

This reverts commit fc6ccb868fa735ee9c6592806f381aa1262bf0b2.

We still need root permissions for drmDrop/SetMaster.  Without
integration with ConsoleKit or systemd we also don't have access
to /dev/dri/cardX in the case where we open a new VT.
