[PATCH v3 03/18] drm: allow real encoder to be passed for drm_writeback_connector

For some vendor driver implementations, display hardware can
be shared between the encoder used for writeback and the physical
display.

In addition resources such as clocks and interrupts can
also be shared between writeback and the real encoder.

To accommodate such vendor drivers and hardware, allow
real encoder to be passed for drm_writeback_connector.

For existing clients, drm_writeback_connector_init() will use
an internal_encoder under the hood and hence no changes will
be needed.

changes in v7:
	- move this change before the vc4 change in the series
	  to minimize the changes to vendor drivers in drm core
	  changes
