[RFC,v2,00/18] drm/display/dp_mst: Drop Radeon MST support, make MST atomic-only

For quite a while we've been carrying around a lot of legacy modesetting
code in the MST helpers that has been rather annoying to keep around,
and very often gets in the way of trying to implement additional
functionality in MST such as fallback link rate retraining, dynamic BPC
management and DSC support, etc. because of the fact that we can't rely
on atomic for everything.

Luckily, we only actually have one user of the legacy MST code in the
kernel - radeon. Originally I was thinking of trying to maintain this
code and keep it around in some form, but I'm pretty unconvinced anyone
is actually using this. My reasoning for that is because I've seen
nearly no issues regarding MST on radeon for quite a while now - despite
the fact my local testing seems to indicate it's quite broken. This
isn't too surprising either, as MST support in radeon.ko is gated behind
a module parameter that isn't enabled by default. This isn't to say I
wouldn't be open to alternative suggestions, but I'd rather not be the
one to have to spend time on that if at all possible! Plus, I already
floated the idea of dropping this code by AMD folks a few times and
didn't get much resistance.

As well, this series has some basic refactoring that I did along the way
and some bugs I had to fix in order to get my atomic-only MST code
working. Most of this is pretty straight forward and simply renaming
things to more closely match the DisplayPort specification, as I think
this will also make maintaining this code a lot easier in the long run
(I've gotten myself confused way too many times because of this).

So far I've tested this on all three MST drivers: amdgpu, i915 and
nouveau, along with making sure that removing the radeon MST code
doesn't break anything else. The one thing I very much could use help
with regarding testing though is making sure that this works with
amdgpu's DSC support on MST.

So, with this we should be using the atomic state as much as possible
with MST modesetting, hooray!
