EDID can't help us since it would only tell us whether the display
supports dual-link or not. The dongle may still be single link only.

Userspace is free to force any it wants. But I guess mutter+wayland
doesn't support that for some reason.

I've occasionally pondered about adding some kind of connector property
for this, but not sure wht it should look like. And it would still
require userspace support to set it. Another idea would be to extend the
video= cmdline with some kind of knob that lets you override these
limits. But again it's a bit hard to come up with a decent solution since
there are various different clock limits involved (TMDS clock for HDMI
vs. link rate for DP, dotclock for everyting). And just saying "ignore
all limits" is not a very flexible solution since there may be some
limit you do want to enforce, just not as low as what we would
auto-detect.

I am having trouble with rejection of a Dual-DVI compatible mode out of the DisplayPort  specific to i915 in Fedora 33. It seems that drm_mode_validate_pipeline is the wall I hit when digging for why this mode is pruned. Requesting additional troubleshooting guidance.
