[PATCH v3] drm/edid DSC pass-through timing support

VESA DisplayID spec allows the device to force its DSC bits per pixel
value.

For example, the HTC Vive Pro 2 VR headset uses this value in
high-resolution modes (3680x1836 at 90-120, 4896x2448 at 90-120), and when the
kernel doesn't respect this parameter, the garbage is displayed on HMD
instead.

I am unaware of any other hardware using this value; however, multiple
users have tested this patch on the Vive Pro 2, and it is known to work and
not break anything else.

Regarding driver support - I have looked at amdgpu and Nvidia's
open-gpu-kernel-modules, and both seem to have some indication for this
value; however, in Linux, it is unused in both. 

Amdgpu integration was trivial, so I implemented it in the second patch;
other kernel drivers still need the support of this value, and I don't have
the necessary hardware to implement and test the handling of this value on
them.
