phy: rockchip: usbdp: Re-init the PHY on orientation change

This commit updates the cable orientation configuration to re-initialize
the PHY when the orientation changes. It sets a flag to trigger the
re-initialization to prevent DisplayPort functionality from breaking on
reverse cable plugs.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does setting udphy->phy_needs_reinit = true
here actually trigger a hardware update for pure USB3 connections?

When a device is plugged in, the hardware lane muxing is typically updated
inside rk_udphy_init(), which is called conditionally by rk_udphy_power_on().

However, looking at the phy_ops struct for USB3:

static const struct phy_ops rk_udphy_usb3_phy_ops = {
	.init		= rk_udphy_usb3_phy_init,
	.exit		= rk_udphy_usb3_phy_exit,
	.owner		= THIS_MODULE,
};

Because rk_udphy_usb3_phy_ops omits the .power_on callback, and the DWC3
controller only calls .init once during probe, the USB subsystem won't
trigger the PHY re-initialization required to apply the orientation changes.

Will the phy_needs_reinit flag remain set indefinitely, causing pure USB3
devices to fail to link at SuperSpeed if plugged in the reverse orientation?
