DRM bridge drivers are now attaching their DSI device at probe

to probe: this recently started producing an endless -EPROBE_DEFER
loop on some machines that are using external bridges, like the
parade-ps8640, found on the ACER Chromebook R13.

Now that the DSI hosts/devices probe sequence is documented, we can
do adjustments to the mtk_dsi driver as to both fix now and make
sure
to avoid this situation in the future: for this, following what is
documented in drm_bridge.c, move the mtk_dsi component_add() to the
mtk_dsi_ops.attach callback and delete it in the detach callback;
keeping in mind that we are registering a drm_bridge for our DSI,
which is only used/attached if the DSI Host is bound, it wouldn't
make sense to keep adding our bridge at probe time (as it would
be useless to have it if mtk_dsi_ops.attach() fails!), so also move
that one to the dsi host attach function (and remove it in detach).

The original would process panel. Why do you remove the panel part?
It's better that someone has a platform of DSI->Panel to test this
patch.

Sorry, devm_drm_of_get_bridge() has processed the panel part, so for
this patch,
