drm: report dp downstream port type as a subconnector property
Currently, downstream port type is only reported in debugfs. This
information should be considered important since it reflects the actual
physical connector type. Some userspace (e.g. window compositors)
may want to show this info to a user.
The 'subconnector' property is already utilized for DVI-I and TV-out for
reporting connector subtype.
The initial motivation for this feature came from i2c test [1].
It is supposed to be skipped on VGA connectors, but it cannot
detect VGA over DP and fails instead.
v2:
- Ville: utilized drm_dp_is_branch()
- Ville: implement DP 1.0 downstream type info
- Replaced create_dp_properties with add_dp_subconnector_property
- Added dp_set_subconnector_property helper
v4:
- Ville: add DP1.0 best assumption about subconnector
- Ville: assume DVI is DVI-D
- Ville: reuse Writeback enum value for Virtual subconnector
- Renamed #defines: HDMI -> HDMIA, DP -> DisplayPort
v5: rebase
v6:
- Jani Nikula: renamed a function name
- Jani Nikula: addressed the issues with documentation
