To avoid the need for a "nickname" property for each display, change
the display registration so that the display's alias (i.e. "display0"
etc) will be used for the dssdev->name if the display driver didn't
provide a name.
This means that when booting with board files, we will have more
descriptive names for displays, like "lcd1", "hdmi". With DT we'll only
have "display0", etc. But as there are no "nicknames" for things like
serials ports either, I hope we will do fine with this approach.
