sna: Allow user override of EDID for an output
As a slightly more convenient approach than loading the EDID on the
kernel command line, allow the user to specify the EDID path in the
Device section of xorg.conf, e.g.
Section "Device"
Identifier "igfx"
Option "CustomEDID" "DP1:/path/to/dp1.edid,DP2:/path/to/dp2.edid"
EndSection
