The change is for the review in [1] to expose each mod instead of ovl
adaptor to mtk_mutex.
Ovl adaptor is an application that combine these mod to achieve ovl
function, and it's not a real component in mtk_mmsys/mtk_mutex.

For the above comment, I discussed the solution with MediaTek DRM
reviewer CK.Hu internally.
1. remove the DDP_COMPONENT_OVL_ADAPTOR in enum mtk_ddp_comp_id{}  (ref
[2])
2. add DRM driver component define "DDP_COMPONENT_DRM_OVL_ADAPTOR" in
mtk_drm_drv.h (ref[3])
3. replace mmsys compoent DDP_COMPONENT_OVL_ADAPTOR with DRM driver
compoent DDP_COMPONENT_DRM_OVL_ADAPTOR in drm mt8195_mtk_ddp_ext[] path
array. (ref[3] - mtk_drm_drv.c)
   
    static const unsigned int mt8195_mtk_ddp_ext[] = {
		DDP_COMPONENT_DRM_OVL_ADAPTOR,
		DDP_COMPONENT_MERGE5,
		DDP_COMPONENT_DP_INTF1,
    };
Because the DDP_COMPONENT_DRM_OVL_ADAPTOR is not a real mmsys
component, change to use "unsigned int" instead of "enum
mtk_ddp_comp_id{}"
