[SRU][Q/R][PATCH 2/3] usb: typec: ucsi: Add duplicate detection to nvidia registration path

From: "Chia-Lin Kao (AceLan)" <acelan.kao at canonical.com>

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2127960

Extend the duplicate altmode detection to ucsi_register_altmodes_nvidia()
which is used when a driver provides the update_altmodes() callback.

This ensures all drivers benefit from duplicate detection, whether they
use the standard registration path or the nvidia path with update_altmodes
callback.

Without this fix, drivers using the nvidia path (like yoga_c630) would
still encounter duplicate altmode registration errors from buggy firmware.
