[PATCHv2] dt-bindings: dp-connector: add binding for DisplayPort connector

Add binding for DisplayPort connector. A few notes:

* Similar to hdmi-connector, it has hpd-gpios as an optional property,
  as the HPD could also be handled by, e.g., the DP bridge.

* dp-pwr-supply, which provides 3.3V on DP_PWR pin, is optional, as it
  is not strictly required: standard DP cables do not even have the pin
  connected.

* Connector type. Full size and mini connectors are identical except for
  the connector size and form, so I believe there is no functional need
  for this property. But similar to 'label' property, it might be used
  to present information about the connector to the userspace.

* No eDP. There's really no "eDP connector", as it's always a custom
  made connection between the DP and the DP panel. So possibly there is
  no need for edp-connector binding, but even if there is, I don't want
  to guess what it could look like, and could it be part of the
  dp-connector binding.

* No DP++. I'm not familiar with DP++, but I think it's all handled by
  the DP bridge, and does not need any new properties to the dp-connector.
