kernel: M4 VOP display driver ported to 6.18 — binds on hardware (connector WIP)

The RV1106 VOP is the RV-series "lite" VOP (rockchip,rv1106-vop, VOP_VERSION 2.0xc),
mainline's VOP1 driver. Its sibling rv1126 is already in 6.18, so rv1106_vop reuses
rv1126's register sub-structs + VOP_FEATURE_INTERNAL_RGB + the smaller raster.

Verified on warden-c8a3: with the driver delta + DT (vop enabled with named
"ahb"/"dclk" resets, vop_out repointed to a panel-dpi 720x720 node, pwm-backlight
on pwm1), the VOP BINDS and DRM initialises (/dev/dri/card0), and the PWM backlight
comes up. The register data / version / feature / resets are validated.

Open: /sys/class/drm/card0 has no connector yet — rockchip_rgb_init isn't producing
one ("Cannot find any crtc"). Last mile of M4; needs a debug print in rgb_init + the
panel bus_format, and the pixels must be verified on the physical panel (can't be
checked over serial/ssh). Full recipe + next steps in display/README.md.

Also batch-2 config: GPIO_SYSFS, PWM_ROCKCHIP, crypto (aes/ccm/ctr/arc4), CFG80211,
DRM_ROCKCHIP/ROCKCHIP_VOP all =y; PSCI-style SMC removed via the psci-node deletion.
