To enable aspect-ratio support in DRM, blindly exposing the aspect ratio information along with mode, can break things in existing user-spaces which have no intention or support to use this aspect ratio information.
To avoid this, a new drm client cap is required to enable a user-space to advertise if it supports modes with aspect-ratio. Based on this cap value, the kernel will take a call on exposing the aspect ratio info in modes or not.
This patch adds the client cap for aspect-ratio.

V3: rebase V4: As suggested by Marteen Lankhorst modified the commit message explaining the need to use the DRM cap for aspect-ratio. Also, tweaked the comment lines in the code for better understanding and clarity, as recommended by Shashank Sharma. V5: rebase
