drm/i915/crt: Remove 0xa0 probe for VGA

This is a moral revert of 6ec3d0c0.

Following the fix to reset the GMBUS controller after a NAK, we finally
utilize the 0xa0 probe for a CRT connection. And discover that the code
is broken. Shock.

There are a number of issues, but following a key insight from Dave
Airlie, that 0xA0 is an invalid address on a 7-bit bus (though not if we
were to enable 10-bit addressing), and would look like the EDID port
0x50, it is possible to see where the confusion starts.

In short, a write to 0xA0 is accepted by the GMBUS controller which we
interpreted as meaning the existence of a connection (a slave on the
other end of the wire ACKing the write). That was false.

During testing with a broken GMBUS implementation, which never reset an
earlier NAK, this test always reported a NAK and so we proceeded on to
the next test.
