[PATCH v4 09/13] drm: uevent for connector status change

[Ramalingam C]

DRM API for generating uevent for a status changes of connector's
property.

This uevent will have following details related to the status change:

  HOTPLUG=1, CONNECTOR=<connector_id> and PROPERTY=<property_id>
v2:
  Minor fixes at KDoc comments [Daniel]
