drm/plane: Add optional ->atomic_disable() callback

In order to prevent drivers from having to perform the same checks over
and over again, add an optional ->atomic_disable callback which the core
calls under the right circumstances.

v2: pass old state and detect edges to avoid calling ->atomic_disable on
already disabled planes, remove redundant comment (Daniel Vetter)

v3: rename helper to drm_atomic_plane_disabling() to clarify that it is
checking for transitions, move helper to drm_atomic_helper.h, clarify
check for !old_state and its relation to transitional helpers

Here's an extract from some discussion rationalizing the behaviour (for
a full version, see the reference below):

    By the way, the reason for why old_state can be NULL with transitional
    helpers is the ordering of the steps in the atomic transition. Currently
    the Tegra patches do this (based on your blog post and the Exynos proto-
    type):

        1) atomic conversion, phase 1:
           - implement ->atomic_{check,update,disable}()
           - use drm_plane_helper_{update,disable}()

        2) atomic conversion, phase 2:
           - call drm_mode_config_reset() from ->load()
           - implement ->reset()

    That's only a partial list of what's done in these steps, but that's the
    only relevant pieces for why old_state is NULL.

    What happens is that without ->reset() implemented there won't be any
    initial state, hence plane->state (the old_state here) will be NULL the
    first time atomic state is applied.

    We could of course reorder the sequence such that drivers are required
    to hook up ->reset() before they can (or at the same as they) hook up
    the transitional helpers. We could add an appropriate WARN_ON to this
    helper to make that more obvious.

    However, that will not solve the problem because it only gets rid of the
    special case. We still don't know whether old_state->crtc == NULL is the
    current state or just the initial default.

    So no matter which way we do this, I don't see a way to get away without
    requiring specific semantics from drivers. They would be that:

        - drivers recreate the correct state in ->reset() so that
          old_state->crtc != NULL if the plane is really enabled

    or

        - drivers have to ensure that the real state in fact mirrors the
          initial default as encoded in the state (plane disabled)
