[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/2] drm/i915/dp: check eDP display control capability registers

Debug print the capabilities, and flag an error if the panel does not
support adjusting backlight through the BL_PWM_DIM pin, requiring
backlight control through DPCD.

I haven't seen such panels yet, but it's a matter of time. Give
ourselves a reminder when we need to fix this for real.
