drm/display: Select DP helper for DRM_DP_AUX_CHARDEV and DRM_DP_CEC

Browse Source 
The DRM_DP_AUX_CHARDEV and DRM_DP_CEC Kconfig symbols enable code that use
DP helper functions, that are only present if CONFIG_DRM_DISPLAY_DP_HELPER
is also enabled.

But these don't select the DRM_DISPLAY_DP_HELPER symbol, meaning that it
is possible to enable any of them without CONFIG_DRM_DISPLAY_DP_HELPER.

That will lead to the following linking errors with the mentioned config:

  LD      vmlinux.o
  MODPOST vmlinux.symvers
  MODINFO modules.builtin.modinfo
  GEN     modules.builtin

make: *** [Makefile:1749: modules] Error 2

Besides making these symbols to select CONFIG_DRM_DISPLAY_DP_HELPER, make
them to depend on DRM_DISPLAY_HELPER, since can't be enabled without it.

Note: It seems this has been an issue for a long time but was made easier
to reproduce after the commit 1e0f66420b13 ("drm/display: Introduce a DRM
display-helper module"). Adding a Fixes: tag just to make sure that this
fix will be picked for stable once the mentioned change also lands there.
