Some GPUs use external DP bridge encoders NUTMEG and TRAVIS
to implement analog and/or LVDS connections. Typically found in
CIK APU based laptops or on FM2 motherboards that have analog
connectors. These were necessary at the time because Kaveri
didn't have a built-in DAC nor LVDS support.

These devices sadly don't work transparently and need to be
controlled by the driver. This series implements that.

The first half of the series contains some minor fixes and
refactoring necessary for these external encoders to work.
The second half then adds the actual external encoder support.

When we query connector information from the VBIOS and
discover a connector using such an encoder, let's find the
real DisplayPort encoder and use that. Set the connector
signal type to DP, so the pre-existing DP code paths can
work with it without refactoring every signal type check
in the DC code base.

With that, we can now enable DC by default on CIK APUs too.
DC brings proper support for DP/HDMI audio, DP MST, VRR,
10-bit colors, some HDR features, atomic modesetting, etc.
without any loss of functionality.
