Supporting hardware whose final part of the DRM pipeline can be physically
removed requires the ability to detach all bridges from a given point to
the end of the pipeline.

Introduce a variant of drm_encoder_cleanup() for this.

Take care to not try detaching non-attached bridges. This is needed because
when two or more bridges are removed not in the backwards order,
drm_encoder_cleanup_from() is called more than once for bridges closer to
the panel.

Note: in theory drm_encoder_cleanup() is now a superset of
drm_encoder_cleanup_from() and may be simplified to just call
drm_encoder_cleanup_from() and then do the extra actions. However the
common code is subtly different in terms of locking and checks, so this
would complicate the code in this patch and has thus been kept separate for
the time being to make reviewing sompler. Reimplementing
drm_encoder_cleanup() by using drm_encoder_cleanup_from() cvacn be done
later on.

A much simpler and now obsolete version of this patch (missing locking and
checks) previously appeared in
