[PATCH v4 1/2] drm: Enhance EDID quirks to explicitly set a mode

There is at least one monitor that doesn't report its native resolution
in its EDID block.  This enhancement extends the EDID quirk logic to
make monitors like this "just work".

This patch sets up a new quirk list where monitors' correct width,
height, refresh rate, and reduced blanking parameters are specified.
When a matching monitor is attached the full mode is calculated with
drm_cvt_mode() and added to the connector.  The DRM_MODE_TYPE_PREFERRED
bit is set on the new mode and unset from all other modes.

The patch also defines a new quirk bit: EDID_QUIRK_FORCE_MODE.  This
bit needs to be set for the new quirk list discribed above to be
checked.
