Revert "drm/amd/display: Enable Freesync Video Mode by default"

This reverts commit de05abe.

The bug referenced below was bisected to this commit. There has been no
activity toward fixing it in 3 months, so let's revert for now.

+ * The Display Core will add a set of modes derived from the base FreeSync
+ * video mode into the corresponding connector's mode list based on commonly
+ * used refresh rates and VRR range of the connected display, when users enable
+ * this feature. From the userspace perspective, they can see a seamless mode
+ * change experience when the change between different refresh rates under the
+ * same resolution. Additionally, userspace applications such as Video playback
+ * can read this modeset list and change the refresh rate based on the video
+ * frame rate. Finally, the userspace can also derive an appropriate mode for a
+ * particular refresh rate based on the FreeSync Mode and add it to the
+ * connector's mode list.
