LSPCON is essentially an active DP-HDMI convertor. It has
two modes of operations:
- ls mode (for upto HDMI 1.4 outputs, 4k at 30 resoution / 297MHz) 
- pcon mode (for upto HDMI 2.0 outputs, 4k at 60 resolution / 600 MHz)

This patch set adds support for LS mode of operation for GEN9
platforms. It adds a new connector for lspcon, whcih is a mix
and match of DP and HDMI connectors, matching dual personality
of lspcon devices.

Notes:
- Daniel Vetter gave a review comment on LSPCON design, to make
  it a separate encoder. This patch set tries to match that expectations
  with a separate connector, as DDI encoder already fulfills all the
  requirements of a lspcon_encoder.
- This patch set tagrets LS mode of operations only.
- PCON mode of operation will be added later, based on the requirements.
  This is to primarily unbloc Linux devices with LSPCON port.
- This patch set is tested with BXT RVP + drm-nightly
- As we redesigned this code, to meet the review comments, this is a working
  patch set, but not upto commercial quality yet.
