drm/i915: Check for invalid cloning earlier during modeset



Move the encoder cloning check to happen earlier in the modeset. The
main benefit will be that the debug output from a failed modeset will
be less confusing as output_types can not indicate an invalid
configuration during the later computation stages.

For instance, what happened to me was kms_setmode was attempting one
of its invalid cloning checks during which it asked for DP+VGA cloning
on HSW. In this case the DP .compute_config() was executed after
the FDI .compute_config() leaving the DP link clock (1.62 in this case)
in port_clock, and then later the FDI BW computation tried to use that
as the FDI link clock (which should always be 2.7). 1.62 x 2 wasn't
enough for the mode it was trying to use, and so it ended up rejecting
the modeset, not because of an invalid cloning configuration, but
because of supposedly running out of FDI bandwidth. Took me a while
to figure out what had actually happened.
