According to the DisplayPort standard, LTTPRs have two operating
modes:
- non-transparent - it replies to DPCD LTTPR field specific AUX
requests, while passes through all other AUX requests
- transparent - it passes through all AUX requests.

Switching between this two modes is done by the DPTX by issuing
an AUX write to the DPCD PHY_REPEATER_MODE register.

Add a generic helper that allows switching between these modes.

Also add a generic wrapper for the helper that handles the explicit
disabling of non-transparent mode and its disable->enable sequence
mentioned in the DP Standard v2.0 section 3.6.6.1. Do this in order
to move this handling out of the vendor specific driver implementation
into the generic framework.
