    Fix wrong assumptions in cea_for_each_detailed_block v2 · 4966b2a9

    The current logic misunderstands the spec about CEA 18byte descriptors.
    First, the spec doesn't state "detailed timing descriptors" but "18 byte
    descriptors", so any data record could be stored, mixed timings and
    other data, just as in the standard EDID.
    Second, the lower four bit of byte 3 of the CEA record do not contain
    the number of descriptors, but "the total number of DTDs defining native
    formats in the whole EDID [...], starting with the first DTD in the DTD
    list (which starts in the base EDID block)." A device can of course
    support non-native formats.
    
    As such the number can't be used to determine n, and the existing code
    will filter non-timing 18byte descriptors anyway.
