From: Ankit Nautiyal <ankit.k.nauti...@intel.com>
To enable aspect-ratio support in DRM, blindly exposing the
aspect-ratio information along with mode, can break things
in existing user-spaces which have no intention or support
to use this aspect-ratio information.
To avoid this, a new drm client cap is required to enable a
user-space to advertise if it supports modes with aspect-ratio.
Based on this cap value, the kernel will take a call on exposing
the aspect-ratio information in modes or not.
This patch adds the client cap for aspect-ratio.

V3: rebase
v4: As suggested by Marteen Lankhorst modified the commit message
explaining the need to use the DRM cap for aspect-ratio.
Also, tweaked the comment lines in the code for better understanding
and clarity, as recommended by Shashank Sharma.
