[PATCH 1/2] drm/edid: Add helper to detect whether EDID changed

This adds a common drm helper to detect whether the EDID changed from
the last known cached one. This is useful help detect that a monitor was
changed during a suspend/resume cycle.

When that happens (a monitor is replaced by another one during suspend),
no hotplug event will be triggered so the change will not be caught at
resume time. Detecting that the EDID changed allows detecting it.
