drm: Make the connector .detect() callback optional

Many drivers (21 to be exact) create connectors that are always
connected (for instance to an LVDS or DSI panel). Instead of forcing
them to implement a dummy .detect() handler, make the callback optional
and consider the connector as always connected in that case.
