This patch adds drm_panic support for hyperv-drm driver. This function
works but it's still needed to brush up. Let me hear your opinions.

Once kernel panic occurs we expect to see a panic screen. However, to
see the screen, I need to close/re-open the graphic console client
window. As the panic screen shows correctly in the small preview
window in Hyper-V manager and debugfs API for drm_panic works correctly,
I think kernel needs to send signal to Hyper-V host that the console
client refreshes, but I have no idea what kind of signal is needed.

This patch is tested on Hyper-V 2022.
