This adds support for DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR by adding the
bridge get_edid() and detect() callbacks after refactoring the connector
get_modes() and connector_detect() callbacks.

In order to keep the bridge working, extra code in get_modes() has been
moved to more logical places.

Hi,

This patch broke ARM/QEMU vexpress display because of_drm_find_bridge()
always fail with -EPROBE_DEFER. Reverting this patch returns display
back. Please fix or revert, thanks in advance.

Can you share a QEMU cmdline to reproduce ?

Actually the vexpress DT has multiple input ports instead of a single input port at @0
and an output port at @1 like documented in the bindings:

vexpress-v2m.dtsi#L303-L307:
ports {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;

/*
* Both the core tile and the motherboard routes their output
* pads to this transmitter. The motherboard system controller
* can select one of them as input using a mux register in
* "arm,vexpress-muxfpga". The Vexpress with the CA9 core tile is
* the only platform with this specific set-up.
*/
port@0 {
reg = <0>;
dvi_bridge_in_ct: endpoint {
remote-endpoint = <&clcd_pads_ct>;
};
};
port@1 {
reg = <1>;
dvi_bridge_in_mb: endpoint {
remote-endpoint = <&clcd_pads_mb>;
};
};
};

bindings:
ports:
$ref: /schemas/graph.yaml#/properties/ports

properties:
port@0:
$ref: /schemas/graph.yaml#/properties/port
description: Parallel RGB input port

port@1:
$ref: /schemas/graph.yaml#/properties/port
description: HDMI output port

port@3:
$ref: /schemas/graph.yaml#/properties/port
description: Sound input port

The patch is conform to the bindings, the DT was working but is actually not valid.
