[PATCH 4/4] drm/connector: Make init functions panic consitently and explicitly

All of the current encoder init / allocation functions behave slightly
differently when it comes to argument sanitizing:

 - drm_connector_init() and drm_connector_init_with_ddc() implicitly
   panic if the drm_device pointer, or the drm_connector pointer are
   NULL, and will call WARN_ON and error out if the
   drm_connector_funcs pointer is NULL or if there's no destroy
   implementation.

 - drmm_connector_init() implicitly panics if the drm_device pointer,
   the drm_connector_funcs pointer, or the drm_connector pointer are
   NULL, and will call WARN_ON and error out if there's a destroy
   implementation.

The current consensus is that the drm_device pointer, the drm_connector
pointer, and the drm_connector_funcs pointer should be considered
pre-requisite and the function should panic if we encounter such a
situation, and that returning an error in such a situation is not
welcome.

Let's make all functions consider those three pointers to be always set
and explicitly panic if they aren't. And let's document that behaviour
too.
