Restart video when mode detection is failed
KVM sometimes stops when video mode is changed. This commit adds
video restarting logic for the case.
Tested:
1. Open BMCWeb -> Server control -> KVM
2. Checked KVM screen update while restarting the host. It
updates all frames even when video mode changes happen.

The obmc-ikvm application is a VNC server that provides access to the host graphics output. The application interfaces with the video device on the BMC that captures the host graphics, and then serves that video data on the RFB (remote framebuffer, also known as VNC) protocol. The application also interfaces with the BMC USB gadget device to pass HID events from the BMC to the host, allowing the user to interact with the host system.
Once the host is running and an appropriate HID gadget device is instantiated on the BMC, the application can be started with the following command: obmc-ikvm -v <video device path> -i <HID gadget device path>
For example:
obmc-ikvm -v /dev/video0 -i /dev/hidg0
