Implement the bridge connector-related .get_edid(), .detect() and
.hpd_notify() operations, and report the related bridge capabilities.

Output status detection is implemented using the same backend as for the
DRM connector, but requires making mode retrieval at detection time
optional as no pointer to the connector is available to the bridge
.detect() operation. The reason for the need to retrieve modes at
detection time is unclear to me, and this may benefit from further
refactoring of hot plug handling code.

Hot plug detection is notified through the bridge HPD notification
framework when the bridge is used without creating a connector, and
falls back to the existing implementation otherwise. CEC handling of
disconnection is handled in the new .hpd_notify() operation in the new
code path.

History
Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
