[PATCH RFC v2 0/7] drm: add DRM HDMI Codec framework

While porting lt9611 DSI-to-HDMI bridge driver to use HDMI Connector
framework, I stumbled upon an issue while handling the Audio InfoFrames.
The HDMI codec callbacks weren't receiving the drm_atomic_state, so
there was no simple way to get the drm_connector that stayed at the end
of the bridge chain. At the same point the drm_hdmi_connector functions
expected to get drm_connector instance.

While looking for a way to solve the issue, I stumbled upon several
deficiencies in existing hdmi_codec_ops implementations. Only few of the
implementations were able to handle codec's 'plugged' callback. One
third of the drivers didn't implement the get_eld() callback.

Most of the issues can be solved if drm_connector handles
hdmi-audio-codec on its own, delegating functionality to the actual
implementation, be it a driver that implements drm_connector or
drm_bridge.

Implement such high-level framework, adding proper support for Audio
InfoFrame generation to the LT9611 driver.

Several design decisions to be kept in mind:

- drm_connector_hdmi_codec is kept as simple as possible. It implements
  generic functionality (ELD, hotplug, registration).

- drm_hdmi_connector sets up HDMI codec device if the connector
  is setup correspondingly (either I2S or S/PDIF is marked as
  supported).

- drm_bridge_connector provides a way to link HDMI audio codec
  funcionality in the drm_bridge with the drm_connector_hdmi_codec
  framework.

- It might be worth reverting the no_i2s_capture / no_spdif_capture
  bits. Only TDA889x driver sets them, while it's safe to assume that
  most of HDMI / DP devices do not support ARC / capture. I think the
  drivers should opt-in capture support rather than having to opt-out of
  it.

This series is in the RFC stage, so some bits are underdocumented.

Changes in v2:
- Use drm_atomic_get_old_connector_for_encoder in atomic_disable() to
  prevent it from crashing
- Reworked HDMI codec init/exit, removing drmm_ calls (Maxime)
- Drafted the helper to be called from .detect_ctx() that performs HDMI
  Connector maintenance duties (Maxime)
- Moved no_capture_mute to struct hdmi_codec_pdata
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240615-drm-bridge-hdmi-connector-v1-0-d59fc7865ab2@linaro.org
