I think we should validate encoders against connector->possible_ids here.
Might be that not many drivers fill this out correctly, and in case fixing
that is much work, perhaps as a follow-up. But would be good to at least
help look down that part of uapi a bit more.

This isn't checked within atomic and legacy helpers since we assume that
->best_encoder respectively ->atomic_best_encoder gives us a valid encoder
...

We check this one here already in both atomic and legacy helpers, so all
drivers should get this right.

I'd leave 2 bullets for connector->mode_valid (sink specific checks) and
everything else (source checks, which are also enforced by the
modeset/atomic helpers).
