[PATCH/RESEND 2/9] drm/tilcdc: panel: fix dangling sysfs connector node

Add a drm_sysfs_connector_remove call when we destroy the panel to make
sure the connector node in sysfs gets deleted.

This is required for proper unload and re-load of this driver as a
module. Without this, we would get a warning at re-load time like so:
