Summary: User friendly names should be used for HDMI/DP devices

SUMMARY
Right now, when I want my monitor with integrated speakers to play audio, I
need to select "HDMI/DIsplayPort (HDA NVidia Digital Stereo (HDMI))". That is
rather user-unfriendly. A name of the monitor should be used (like Display
Configuration does). Both PulseAudio and cutting edge Pipewire (the fix to
enable it was merged a few days ago) provide this in device.product.name. If
available, at least for HDMI or DP devices, this should be used.
At least that is the upstream recommendation here:

A lot of the details including screenshots are also included on that link.
