This patch adds basic DT bindings for the PL11x CLCD cells
and make their fbdev driver use them, together with the
Common Display Framework.

The DT provides information about the hardware configuration
and limitations (eg. the largest supported resolution)
but the video modes come exclusively from the Common
Display Framework drivers, referenced to by the standard CDF
binding.

Much better.

I will point out though that there be all sorts of worms here when you
come to the previous ARM evaluation boards (which is why the capabilities
stuff got written in the first place) where there's a horrid mixture of
BGR/RGB ordering at various levels of the system - some of which must be
set correctly because the CLCD output isn't strictly used as R bits
G bits and B bits (to support different formats from the CLCD's native
formats.)
