[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v4 1/6] drm/i915: Add DPCD preferred mode for backlight control

Currently the intel_dp_aux_backlight driver requires eDP panel
to not also support backlight adjustment via PWM pin to use
this driver.

This force the eDP panel that support both ways of backlight
adjustment to do it via PWM pin.

This patch adds the new prefer DPCD mode in the i915_param
to make it enable to prefer DPCD over the PWM via kernel param.

This patch also add a check to DP_EDP_BACKLIGHT_AUX_ENABLE_CAP
in set_aux_backlight_enable() since the backlight enablement
can be done via BL_ENABLE eDP connector pin in the case that
it does not support doing that via AUX.
