ACPI video: Prune dupe video devices, unless "video.allow_duplicates"

Some buggy BIOS exports multiple ACPI video bus devices for the same
VGA controller, and multiple backlight control methods as well.
This messes up the ACPI video backlight control.

With this patch applied, only the FIRST ACPI video bus device
under a PCI device node is bind to ACPI video driver by default.

If the first ACPI video bus device doesn't work well, we can use
video.allow_duplicates=1 to go back to the old behavior.
