Currently an invalid EDID extension will cause the whole EDID to be considered
invalid. Instead just drop the extension, and return the valid base block. The
base block is modified to not claim to have extensions, and update the checksum.
For my EIZO S2242W the base block is fine, but the extension block is all
zeros. Without this patch I get no X and no VTs.
