[PATCH v2 06/18] DRM/KMS/EDID: Don't expect extension blocks for EDID Versions < 1.3.

EDID extension blogs are only expected for EDIDs version 1.3 or higher.
If an EDID with a lower version is found fix the block count in the
extension flags and return the base block.
This should help to avoid issues with older displays with broken
DDC implementations.
