[PATCH 1/2] drm/amd/display: Skip connector updates without a stream

Atomic DPMS can leave a connector assigned to an enabled but inactive
CRTC after the driver has removed its DC stream. A later atomic commit
can then change HDR_OUTPUT_METADATA or Broadcast RGB while leaving the
CRTC mode, routing and active state unchanged.

That property-only commit does not require a modeset, so it reaches the
connector stream-update path with a NULL stream. An HDR metadata change
passes the update bailout and reaches dc_stream_get_status(NULL), while
a Broadcast RGB change dereferences the stream earlier when comparing
its output color space.

Skip stream updates until a stream exists. The connector state remains
stored, and an enabling modeset applies it to the newly created stream.

The crash was reproduced on a Phoenix1 system with DCN 3.1.4 and Linux
7.2-rc5 using a one-shot AI-generated DRM atomic reproducer:

The reproducer first sets HDR_OUTPUT_METADATA on an active CRTC, then
sets CRTC ACTIVE=0 to remove the DC stream while keeping the connector
routed to the CRTC, and finally changes HDR_OUTPUT_METADATA from one
non-NULL blob to another. The last commit does not require a modeset and
reached dc_stream_get_status(NULL) from amdgpu_dm_atomic_commit_tail().
The same sequence completed without crashing with this fix applied.
