[Why] When an eDP panel is powered externally from a different GPU, we can avoid waiting for hardware sequencing delays when switching the backlight on/off as the display backlight is no longer powered by the original source. [How] This commit extends the 'link_powered_externally' variable to allow bypassing hardware delays for additional backlight commands and force the backlight on/off when a link is powered by another GPU.
