drm: document how user-space should use link-status
Describe what a "BAD" link-status means for user-space and how it should
handle it. The logic described has been implemented in igt [1].
v2:
- Change wording to avoid "enabled" (Daniel)
- Add paragraph about multiple connectors sharing the same CRTC (Pekka)
- Add paragraph about performing an atomic commit on a connector without
updating the link-status property (Daniel)
v3:
- Fix description of what happens when link-status isn't reset to
"GOOD", and when link-status is reset without ALLOW_MODESET (Daniel,
Ville)
- Changing link-status to "BAD" is a no-op
- Clearly state that "BAD" means black screen (Manasi)
