It's not pretty, but
- Currently the net of "all Synaptics devices with rev>DP1.4" catches every device we care about and none we don't
- If a future Synaptics device supports virtual DPCD properly, we will check for that first and never resort to the workaround (see patch 6/6)
- We don't know any of the properties of any hypothetical future Synaptics hardware, so we can't create cases for them now

Also, received offline review from AMD MST DSC (Non-Linux) expert Wenjing Liu, giving me permission  o mark this patch

This seems to be generic OUI for Synaptics [1]. Could this cause us to
cast the net too wide?

Even if we check that it's DP_DPCD_REV >= 1.4 there's a good chance
Synaptics is fixing this in the future and won't require the quirk.
