The display IPs in MediaTek SoCs support being interconnected with
different instances of DDP IPs (for example, merge0 or merge1) and/or
with different DDP IPs (for example, rdma can be connected with either
color, dpi, dsi, merge, etc), forming a full Display Data Path that
ends with an actual display.

The final display pipeline is effectively board specific, as it does
depend on the display that is attached to it, and eventually on the
sensors supported by the board (for example, Adaptive Ambient Light
would need an Ambient Light Sensor, otherwise it's pointless!), other
than the output type.

Add support for OF graphs to most of the MediaTek DDP (display) bindings
to add flexibility to build custom hardware paths, hence enabling board
specific configuration of the display pipeline and allowing to finally
migrate away from using hardcoded paths.
