Avoiding direct access to backlight_properties.props.

Access to the deprecated props.fb_blank replaced by backlight_is_blank().
Access to props.power is dropped - it was only used for debug.

For debugging purposes here, would there be any point in logging props.state?
As in

        fbtft_par_dbg(DEBUG_BACKLIGHT, par,
-                     "%s: power=%d, fb_blank=%d\n",
-                     __func__, bd->props.power, bd->props.fb_blank);

+                     __func__, bd->props.power, bd->props.state);
Thanks for the suggestion - and the reviews!

I was tempted to just remove the debugging.
If we require debugging, then this could be added in the backlight core,
thus everyone would benefit from it.

The solution above avoid any direct use of backlight_properties
which I consider a layer violation outside the backlight core.
(We cannot avoid it today with the current interface - but we can
minimize it).
