    samsung/exynos5: add display port and framebuffer defines and initialization
    
    These are essential functions for setting up the display port and
    framebuffer, and also enable such things as aux channel
    communications.  We do some very simple initialization in romstage,
    mainly set a GPIO so that the graphics is powering up, but the complex
    parts are done in the ramstage. This mirrors the way in which graphics
    is done in the x86 size.
    
    I've added a first pass at a real device, and put it in the mainboard
    Kconfig, hoping for corrections. Because startup is so complex,
    depending on device type, I've created a 'displayport' device that
    removes some of the complexity and makes the flow *much* clearer.  You
    can actually follow the flow by looking at the code, which is not true
    on other implementations. Since display port is perhaps the main port
    used on these chips, that's a reasonable compromise. All parameters of
    importance are now in the device tree.
