Agreed.

As mentioned in the FIX ME, lets have dfp->rgb_to_ycbcr only to capture 
that the dfp supports conversion.

and dfp->ycbcr_444_420 to capture that it supports 444_420.

Whether we need to program the DPCD to avail these support can be 
captured in another member to crtc_state->dp_dfp_444_420, and 
crtc_state->dp_dfp_rgb_ycbcr based on crtc_state->sink_format.

We can fill these members, during compute_config along with dsc 
considerations.

These can then be used in dp_configure_protocol_converter().
