drm/panel-edp: add fat warning against adding new panel compatibles
Add a fat warning against adding new panel compatibles to the panel-edp driver. All new users of the eDP panels are supposed to use the generic "edp-panel" compatible device on the AUX bus. The remaining compatibles are either used by the existing DT or were used previously and are retained for backwards compatibility.
