drm/i915/backlight: Remove try_vesa_interface

Some panels need VESA DPCD AUX backlight but VBT says otherwise.
This is why we try with Intel backlight interface over VESA backlight
interface. This causes a blankout on such panels without any fallback
mechanism.
Remove try_vesa_interface and use VESA AUX backlight interface as a
fallback mechanism.
While at in sneak in a small comment cleanup too.
