[Why]
Currently, we will create connectors for all output ports no matter
it's connected or not. However, in MST, we can only determine
whether an output port really stands for a "connector" till it is
connected and check its peer device type as an end device.
In current code, we have chance to create connectors for output ports
connected with branch device and these are redundant connectors. e.g.
StarTech 1-to-4 DP hub is constructed by internal 2 layer 1-to-2 branch
devices. Creating connectors for such internal output ports are
redundant.
[How]
Put constraint on creating connector for connected end device only.
