Mario Limonciello bd9e2b5b04 drm/amd/display: Fix backlight max_brightness to match exported range
[Why]
FWTS autobrightness fails on eDP panels because actual_brightness can
read higher than the advertised max_brightness (e.g. 63576 vs 62451).

The conversion helpers expose the firmware PWM range to userspace as
[0..max].  But max_brightness is advertised as (max - min), which is
smaller.  So reading the level can return a value above max_brightness.

This regressed in commit 4b61b8a390 ("drm/amd/display: Add debugging
message for brightness caps"), which changed max_brightness to
(max - min) and undid commit 8dbd72cb79 ("drm/amd/display: Export full
brightness range to userspace").

[How]
Advertise max_brightness as max, and scale the initial AC/DC brightness
against max too.  Update the KUnit expectations to match.
