[PATCH v2 10/18] DRM/KMS/EDID: Feed 'firmware' supplied EDID blocks whenever the EDID is read (v2)

Firmware supplied EDIDs where fed in in drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes()
in place of calling the driver supplied get_modes() function.
This has two problems:
1. Drivers don't call drm_get_edid() only from within get_modes().
2. The get_modes() replacement in drm_load_edid_firmware() provided only
   the least common denominator of what driver provided get_modes() callbacks
   do.
This patch now supplies a user provided 'firmware' EDID whenever drm_get_edid()
is called if one is available. The user supplied EDID is thus used the same way
as a display provided one (except for detecting the presence of a device thru
EDID). Also it does so not on the helper level any more, the possibility for
EDID loading now happens on the DRM KMS core level.

v2: Fixed formatting and conflicts due to reordering of commits.
