There are no drivers using struct drm_simple_display_pipe. Remove the data type and all related helpers. The idea behind struct drm_simple_display_pipe was to provide an easier way for writing DRM drivers besides regular atomic helpers. It turned out to be more complicated. With all drivers being updated to use atomic helpers, it's time to remove simple-pipe. Also clean up the related TODO items.
