Switch to drm_connector_list_iter for any connector_list walking
----------------------------------------------------------------
Connectors can be hotplugged, and we now have a special list of helpers to walk
the connector_list in a race-free fashion, without incurring deadlocks on
mutexes and other fun stuff.
Unfortunately most drivers are not converted yet. At least all those supporting
DP MST hotplug should be converted, since for those drivers the difference
matters. See drm_for_each_connector_iter() vs. drm_for_each_connector().
