The TC port and phy stuff in our driver never cease to confuse me. And I
know you've explained all this to me several times.

I think we need some "TC port and phy for dummies" (that's me)
documentation comment somewhere in intel_tc.c that we (I) can refer to.

I also feel like the whole mess of intel_ddi_encoder_name() underlines
how problematic the concepts are. Moreover, I think intel_bios.c logs
the ports incorrectly.
