drm/probe-helper: clamp unknown connector status in the poll work

On some chipset we try to avoid possibly invasive output detection
methods (like load detect which can cause flickering elsewhere) in the
output poll work. Drivers could hence return unknown when a previous
full ->detect call returned a different state.

This change will generate a hotplug event, forcing userspace to do a
full scan. This in turn updates the connector->status field so that we
will _again_ get a state change when the hotplug work re-runs in 10
seconds.

To avoid this ping-pong loop detect this situation and clamp the
connector state to the old value.

Patch is inspired by a patch from Knut Peterson. Knut's patch
completely ignored connector state changes if either the old or new
status was unknown, which seemed to be a bit too agressive to me.

v2: Rebased onto the drm_probe_helper.c extraction.
