[PATCH 2/3] drm/i915/dp_link_training: Add a final failing state to link training fallback for MST

Currently, MST link training has no fallback whatsoever. This means that
if an MST base connector fails to link-train once, the training
completely fails, which makes this case significantly more common than a
complete SST link training failure.

Until MST fallback is fully implemented, this patch adds a final failure
case to MST link training (similar to SST). In particular, this patch
zeros out both max_link_rate and max_link_lane_count. In addition, it
stops reseting MST params so the zeroing of the bit rate fields stick.
This ensures that the MST base connector's modes will be completely
pruned, since it is effectively left with 0Gbps bandwidth.

Once again, it is the userspace's responsibility to ignore connectors
with no modes, even if they are marked as connected.
