6cd2c7db41 videomode: videomode_from_timing work
We currently have videomode_from_timing(), which takes one
display_timing entry from display_timings.

To make it easier to use display_timing without display_timings, this
patch renames videomode_from_timing() to videomode_from_timings(), and
adds a new videomode_from_timing() which just converts a given
display_timing to videomode.

694f050650 videomode: remove timing_entry_index
Display timing's fields have minimum, typical and maximum values. These
can be accessed by using timing_entry_index enum, and
display_timing_get_value() function.

There's no real need for this extra complexity. The values can be
accessed more easily by just using the min/typ/max fields.

06a3307975 videomode: combine videomode dmt_flags and data_flags
Both videomode and display_timing contain flags describing the modes.
These are stored in dmt_flags and data_flags. There's no need to
separate these flags, and having separate fields just makes the flags
more difficult to use.

This patch combines the fields and renames VESA_DMT_* flags to
DISPLAY_FLAGS_*.

8714c0cecf video: add display_timing and videomode
Add display_timing structure and the according helper functions. This allows
the description of a display via its supported timing parameters.

Also, add helper functions to convert from display timings to a generic videomode
structure.

The struct display_timing specifies all needed parameters to describe the signal
properties of a display in one mode. This includes
    - ranges for signals that may have min-, max- and typical values
    - single integers for signals that can be on, off or are ignored
    - booleans for signals that are either on or off

As a display may support multiple modes like this, a struct display_timings is
added, that holds all given struct display_timing pointers and declares the
native mode of the display.

Although a display may state that a signal can be in a range, it is driven with
fixed values that indicate a videomode. Therefore graphic drivers don't need all
the information of struct display_timing, but would generate a videomode from
the given set of supported signal timings and work with that.

The video subsystems all define their own structs that describe a mode and work
with that (e.g. fb_videomode or drm_display_mode). To slowly replace all those
various structures and allow code reuse across those subsystems, add struct
videomode as a generic description.

This patch only includes the most basic fields in struct videomode. All missing
fields that are needed to have a really generic video mode description can be
added at a later stage.
