Title:
  Secondary GPU frame rates are held back by dynamic-max-render-time

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  Secondary GPU frame rates are held back by dynamic-max-render-time as
  shown on this amdgpu setup connected to a 60 Hz monitor:

  main: 30 FPS
  main + CLUTTER_PAINT=disable-dynamic-max-render-time: 60 FPS

  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/3070

  [ Test Plan ]

  This is imprecise because many machines won't exhibit a measurable
  difference...

  1. Set up a dual GPU machine with dual monitors using an open source
  driver such as amdgpu or nouveau. If you are using Mutter 46 or later
  then the closed source Nvidia driver may also be used in theory.

  2. In a Wayland session, check that the frame rate being achieved on
  the monitor connected to the secondary GPU is at least that of the
  refresh rate.

  3. Add CLUTTER_PAINT=disable-dynamic-max-render-time to
  /etc/environment and reboot.

  4. In a Wayland session, check that the frame rate on the monitor
  connected to the secondary GPU has not changed (didn't get better)
  after the environment change.

  5. Remove the change from /etc/environment.

  [ Where problems could occur ]

  Anywhere in frame scheduling and frame rate performance, since that is
  what changed.
