drm/nouveau/kms/nv50-: Stop using nv_encoder->crtc in nv50_disp_atomic_commit_core()

This commit replaces direct access to nv_encoder->crtc with a proper lookup
from the new atomic state in the core commit function. It adds a warning
and continues the loop if the new CRTC is not found.

[Severity: High]
When an output is being disabled (for instance, when a monitor is unplugged),
wouldn't nv50_outp_get_new_crtc() correctly return NULL here since the encoder
is no longer assigned to a CRTC?

If this unconditionally triggers the drm_WARN_ON and early return via the
continue statement, it appears it will completely bypass the cleanup path
below.

Could this skip the call to nvif_outp_release(&nv_encoder->outp), leaking the
hardware resource and generating a spurious warning every time a display is
disabled?
