Add I2C support for the DDC bus and also default mode initialization by
reading monitor EDID to the s3fb driver.

Tested on Trio64V+ (2 cards), Trio64V2/DX, Virge (3 cards),
Virge/DX (3 cards), Virge/GX2, Trio3D/2X (4 cards), Trio3D.

Will probably not work on Trio32 - my 2 cards have DDC support in BIOS that
looks different from the other cards but the DDC pins on the VGA connector
are not connected.

Is there much reason to leave this optional? Or are you simply waiting
for testing feedback from Trio32 users before default-enabling it?

It would generally be nice to avoid these sorts of config options for a
specific driver if it already is quite capable of handling the
unsupported cases and has a reasonable fallback on defaults via the error
path.
