Add EXTCON_DISP_DP for the Display external connector. For Type-C
connector the DisplayPort can work as an Alternate Mode(VESA
DisplayPort Alt Mode on USB Type-C Standard). At this mode, there
is some information need to be supplied by PowerDelivery or other
mode detecter: port orientation and pin assignments, so add these
2 virtual cable: EXTCON_TYPEC_POLARITY and EXTCON_TYPEC_PIN_ASSIGN.
If EXTCON_TYPEC_POLARITY is attached, the Type-C get flip orientation.
IF EXTCON_TYPEC_PIN_ASSIGN is attached, Type-C get Pin_Assignment_C(for
DP only mode) or Pin_Assignment_D(for DP + USB3 mode), the default
Assignment is A(for DP only mode) or B(for DP + USB3 mode).
