commit c675949ec58ca50d5a3ae3c757892f1560f6e896 drm/i915: do not setup backlight if not available according to VBT
caused a regression on machines with a misconfigured VBT. Add a quirk to assert the presence of a controllable backlight. Use it to ignore the VBT backlight presence check during backlight setup.
