drm/mcde: Fix display data flow control
Revamp the way that the flow of data to the display is defined. I realized that the hardware supports something like 5 different modes of flow: oneshot, command with TE IRQ, command with BTA (bus turn around) and TE IRQ, video with TE IRQ and video without TE IRQ instead synchronizing to the output of the MCDE DSI formatter. Like before the selection of the type of flow is done from the DSI driver when we attach it to the MCDE and we get to know what the display wants. The new video mode synchronization method from the MCDE DSI formatter is used on some upstream devices such as Golden. This is the new default for video mode: stateless panels do not as a rule generate TE IRQs. Another semantic change is that we stop sending a TE request before every command when sending data to a display in command mode: this should only be explicitly requested when using BTA, according to the vendor driver. This has been tested and works fine with the command mode displays I have. (All that are supported upstream.)
