This patch depends on [1] (drm/panel: panel-simple: Stash DP AUX bus;
allow using it for DDC) and the previous patch (2/5) of this series.

Changes in v4:
- New

Changes in v5:
- Address review comments and move backlight functions to drm_panel.c (Douglas)
- Create and register DP AUX backlight if there is no backlight specified in the
  device tree and panel has the DP AUX channel. (Douglas)
- The new drm_panel_dp_aux_backlight() will do the drm_edp_backlight_supported() check.
