For CRTCs with multiple outputs (i.e., encoders plus connectors),
only report at most a single connected output to userspace. Make
this configurable via CONFIG_DRM_REPORT_SINGLE_CONNECTED_CRTC_OUTPUT.

Having multiple connected outputs on the same CRTC complicates
display-mode and format selection, so most userspace does not
support this. This is mostly not a problem in practice, as modern
display hardware provides a separate CRTC for each output. On
old hardware or hardware with BMCs, a single CRTC often drives
multiple displays. Only reporting one of them as connected makes
the hardware compatible with common userspace.

Add the field prioritized_connectors to struct drm_connector. The
bitmask signals which other connectors have priority. Also provide
the helper drm_probe_helper_prioritize_connectors() that sets
default priorities for a given set of connectors. Calling the
helper should be enough to set up the functionality for most drivers.

With the prioritization bits in place, update connector-status
detection to test against prioritized conenctors. So when the probe
helpers detect a connector as connected, test against the prioritized
connectors. If any is also connected, set the connector status to
disconnected.

Please note that this functionality is a workaround for limitations
in userspace. If your compositor supports multiple outputs per CRTC,
CONFIG_DRM_REPORT_SINGLE_CONNECTED_CRTC_OUTPUT should be disabled.
