drm/connector: Add support for out-of-band hotplug notification (v3)
Add a new drm_connector_oob_hotplug_event() function and oob_hotplug_event drm_connector_funcs member. On some hardware a hotplug event notification may come from outside the display driver / device. An example of this is some USB Type-C setups where the hardware muxes the DisplayPort data and aux-lines but does not pass the altmode HPD status bit to the GPU's DP HPD pin. In cases like this the new drm_connector_oob_hotplug_event() function can be used to report these out-of-band events. Changes in v2: - Make drm_connector_oob_hotplug_event() take a fwnode as argument and have it call drm_connector_find_by_fwnode() internally. This allows making drm_connector_find_by_fwnode() a drm-internal function and avoids code outside the drm subsystem potentially holding on the a drm_connector reference for a longer period. Changes in v3: - Drop the data argument to the drm_connector_oob_hotplug_event function since it is not used atm. This can be re-added later when a use for it actually arises.
