drm/radeon: Don't register backlight when another backlight should be used (v3)

Before this commit when we want userspace to use the acpi_video backlight
device we register both the GPU's native backlight device and acpi_video's
firmware acpi_video# backlight device. This relies on userspace preferring
firmware type backlight devices over native ones.

Registering 2 backlight devices for a single display really is
undesirable, don't register the GPU's native backlight device when
another backlight device should be used.

Changes in v2:
- To avoid linker errors when amdgpu is builtin and video_detect.c is in
  a module, select ACPI_VIDEO and its deps if ACPI is enabled.
  When ACPI is disabled, ACPI_VIDEO is also always disabled, ensuring
  the stubs from acpi/video.h will be used.

Changes in v3:
- Use drm_info(drm_dev, "...") to log messages
- ACPI_VIDEO can now be enabled on non X86 too,
  adjust the Kconfig changes to match this.
