Sometimes it's useful for users of the DP AUX bus (like panels) to be
able to poll HPD. Let's add a callback that allows DP AUX busses
drivers to provide this.

+ * This is mainly useful for eDP panels drivers to wait for an eDP
+ * panel to finish powering on. This is an optional function.
+ *
+ * This function will efficiently wait for up to `wait_us` microseconds
+ * for HPD to be asserted and might sleep.

+ *
+ * The semantics of this function are designed to match the
+ * readx_poll_timeout() function. That means a `wait_us` of 0 means
+ * to wait forever. If you want to do a quick poll you could pass 1
+ * for `wait_us`.
+ *
+ * NOTE: this function specifically reports the state of the HPD pin
+ * that's associated with the DP AUX channel. This is different from
+ * the HPD concept in much of the rest of DRM which is more about
+ * physical presence of a display. For eDP, for instance, a display is
+ * assumed always present even if the HPD pin is deasserted.
