[PATCH 19/19] drm/i915/dp: Always enable AS SDP if supported by source + sink

Currently AS SDP is only configured when VRR is enabled. However, other
use cases like CMRR, Panel Replay, etc. also send information to the sink
via AS SDPs.

With optimized guardband, we also need to account for wakeup time and other
relevant details that depend on the AS SDP position whenever AS SDP is
enabled. If a feature enabling AS SDP gets turned on later (after modeset),
the guardband might not be sufficient and may need to increase, triggering
a full modeset.

To avoid this, always send AS SDP whenever the source and sink both
support it.
