app_server doesn't gracefully deal with missing accelerant

Description
If a kernel driver for a graphics chip is present and publishes a device, but its corresponding accelerant is missing, the app_server fails to gracefully fall back to a different device. Noticed this by accident while disabling the radeon (removed the accelerant instead of the kernel driver like I usually do). End result, "Could not initialize graphics output, exiting" on serial, and the Desktop never appeared.

As far as I'm aware, no work has been done to address this specific problem, but I'll recheck this weekend.

Still a bug? Fallback support has gotten some pretty substantial reworking.
