drm/sun4i: backend: Check for the number of alpha planes

Due to the way the composition is done in hardware, we can only have a
single alpha-enabled plane active at a time, placed in the second (highest
priority) pipe.

Make sure of that in our atomic_check to not end up in an impossible
scenario.

/*
* The hardware is a bit unusual here.
*
* Even though it supports 4 layers, it does the composition
* in two separate steps.
*
* The first one is assigning a layer to one of its two
* pipes. If more that 1 layer is assigned to the same pipe,
* and if pixels overlaps, the pipe will take the pixel from
* the layer with the highest priority.
*
* The second step is the actual alpha blending, that takes
* the two pipes as input, and uses the eventual alpha
* component to do the transparency between the two.
*
* This two steps scenario makes us unable to guarantee a
* robust alpha blending between the 4 layers in all
* situations, since this means that we need to have one layer
* with alpha at the lowest position of our two pipes.
*
* However, we cannot even do that, since the hardware has a
* bug where the lowest plane of the lowest pipe (pipe 0,
* priority 0), if it has any alpha, will discard the pixel
* entirely and just display the pixels in the background
* color (black by default).
*
* This means that we effectively have only three valid
* configurations with alpha, all of them with the alpha being
* on pipe1 with the lowest position, which can be 1, 2 or 3
* depending on the number of planes and their zpos.
