[PATCH] drm/i915: i915.disable_pch_pwm overrides PCH_PWM_ENABLE quirk

BugLink: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47941

Some BIOS configurations of Dell XPS13 are adversely affected by e85843b
("drm/i915: quirk no PCH_PWM_ENABLE for Dell XPS13 backlight") so provide a
boot param to inhibit the quirk, or force it on.

i915.disable_pch_pwm can be set to
 -1: auto (default; allows the disabling of pch_pwm by dmi quirk table match)
  0: inhibits the disabling of pch_pwm (overrides dmi quirk table match)
  1: forces the disabling of pch_pwm
