Rewrite the command line parser in order to get away from the state machine parsing the video mode lines.
Hopefully, this will allow to extend it more easily to support named modes and / or properties set directly on the command line.

Thomas reported to me that this patch breaks "video=CONNECTOR:e" kernel parameter which he currently uses as a workaround for H6 HDMI monitor detection issue on one STB.
I suppose this is the same issue that Dmitry noticed.
Thomas Graichen (in CC) can provide more information if needed.
Best regards, Jernej
as jernej already mentioned i am currently having to use the kernel cmdline option video=HDMI-A-1:e to get a working hdmi output on an eachlink h6 mini tv box and was wondering that i did not get any hdmi output even with this option when switching from the https://github.com/megous/linux oprange-pi-5.2 to the orange-pi-5.3 branch which seems to contain this patch. as i had no idea what might have caused the breakage of the hdmi output and did a full bisect of the kernel between those two versions, which ended reliably at exactly this patch - so i guess there is a regression at least with the video=CONNECTOR:e option (maybe others too?) with this patches code which makes it not working anymore.
