Add fixes to the CC contaminant/connection detection logic to improve reliability and stability of the maxim tcpc driver.

Low power mode is enabled when reading CC resistance as part of `max_contaminant_read_resistance_kohm()` and left in that state. However, it's supposed to work with 1uA current source. To read CC comparator values current source is changed to 80uA. This causes a storm of CC interrupts as it (falsely) detects a potential contaminant. To prevent this, disable low power mode current sourcing before reading comparator values.

Hi,
Thanks for your patch.
FYI: kernel test robot notices the stable kernel rule is not satisfied.
The check is based on https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html#opti...
Rule: add the tag "Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org" in the sign-off area to have the patch automatically included in the stable tree.

Presently in `max_contaminant_is_contaminant()` if there's no contaminant detected previously, CC is open & stopped toggling and no contaminant is currently present, TCPC.RC would be programmed to do DRP toggling. However, it didn't actively look for a connection. This would lead to Type-C not detect *any* new connections. Hence, in the above situation, re-enable toggling & program TCPC to look for a new connection.
Also, return early if TCPC was looking for connection as this indicates TCPC has neither detected a potential connection nor a change in contaminant state.
In addition, once dry detection is complete (port is dry), restart toggling.
