Unset would be the "auto" option. But i think this problem exists already e.g. a KMS client is unaware of the new
"preferred color format" property and sets "Broadcast RGB" on intel which does nothing in the case of Y'CbCr.
Since the properties affecting each other, having only one not at default, potentially breaks KMS clients unaware of
them regardless.

OK, I will try to validate the behavior of the Intel driver and be detailed in the documentation, but keep the
implementation like this now (unless the intel driver does something different then I thought ofc).
