This lets us add two more HDMI/DVI outputs to raspi using the DISPn DSI ports :)

Enable CONFIG_DRM_LONTIUM_LT8912B=m in the five Raspberry Pi OS defconfigs so LT8912B DSI-to-HDMI adapters can use the existing driver without building an out-of-tree module.

The unmodified driver was built and tested on a Raspberry Pi 5 with a two-lane board overlay on CAM/DISP1. A cold boot, EDID detection and 1280x720 at 60 Hz SMPTE output were verified.

Written by astra, hand-tested by meat.
