drm/plane: remove drm_helper_get_plane_damage_clips

It's not used. Drivers should instead use the helpers anyway.

Currently both vbox and i915 hand-roll this and it's not the greatest.
vbox looks buggy, and i915 does a bit much that helpers would take
care of I think.

Also improve the kerneldocs while we're at it.
