[RFC 1/5] drm: Add HDMI 2.0+ features exposing knob

We can't expect userspace to have full support for all HDMI 2.0+
features. Instead of expecting/waiting for userspace to support
the new features add a knob, much like the stereo knob, so that
DRM core will only expose the features when asked too.
