Don't call CreateDisplayPipe until the display is actually needed
[seanpaul] Changed title from "DrmResources::CreateDisplayPipe throws meaningless error for DRM_MODE_DISCONNECTED"

... 2245 2245 E hwc-drm-resources: Could not find a suitable encoder/crtc for display 2
... 2245 2245 E hwc-drm-resources: Failed CreateDisplayPipe 56 with -19
... 2245 2245 E hwcomposer-drm: Can't initialize Drm object -19Updated proposed commit to solve this problem is [1] as it is assessed that either the drm_hwcomposer code is flawed to return error for DRM_MODE_DISCONNECTED, or, in any case, it is necessary to identify E2E root cause of the problem.
