drm/bridge: aux: Add drm_aux_bridge_register_from_node()

This commit introduces drm_aux_bridge_register_from_node() to allow
specifying the of_node corresponding to the bridge, extending the
existing drm_aux_bridge_register() functionality.

[Severity: High]
Does this code need to take a reference on np before setting it?

Looking at device_set_of_node_from_dev(), it correctly acquires a reference
using of_node_get(). However, device_set_node() only assigns the pointer
without taking a reference.

If initialization fails, the error path unconditionally drops a reference:

        ret = auxiliary_device_init(adev);
        if (ret) {
                of_node_put(adev->dev.of_node);
                ...

Additionally, drm_aux_bridge_release() unconditionally calls of_node_put()
when the device is released.

Could assigning the node here without of_node_get() cause a reference count
underflow and a potential use-after-free for the provided node?
