Could this be inferred from the connected DT node ? If the node
connected to the endpoint is a display connector node, then we have an
external connector. Otherwise we have an eDP panel. Ideally this should
even be done at runtime, by communicating with the drm_bridge or
drm_panel corresponding to the connected node.

It's fine if the feature isn't implemented in the driver, but we should
still take it into account to design the DT bindings. Otherwise, when
someone will want to add support for USB-C to the ANX7625 bindings, they
may find it impossible to do so in a nice backward-compatible way.
That's why an example would already be useful.
