thunderbolt: Use different lane for second DisplayPort tunnel

Brad reported that on Apple hardware with Light Ridge or Falcon Ridge
controller, plugging in a chain of Thunderbolt displays (Light Ridge
based controllers) causes all kinds of tearing and flickering. The
reason for this is that on Thunderbolt 1 hardware there is no lane
bonding so we have two independent 10 Gb/s lanes, and currently Linux
tunnels both displays through the lane 1. This makes the displays to
share the 10 Gb/s bandwidth which may not be enough for higher
resolutions.

For this reason make the second tunnel go through the lane 0 instead.
This seems to match what the macOS connection manager is also doing.
