Yuling Li 85ccd2c39c drm/amd/display: Fix cursor disable with horizontally split planes
[WHY]
resource_can_pipe_disable_cursor() disables the hardware cursor on a
pipe when a higher layer fully covers that pipe's recout, to avoid
double-cursor and scaling artifacts.

When merging pipe-split halves of the same overlay layer, the inner
loop walks every pipe above the current one and looks for siblings
sharing test_pipe's layer_index. Because test_pipe itself satisfies
that condition, it can be treated as its own split partner. That
incorrectly doubles r2.width and makes the covering check succeed even
when the overlay does not fully contain the underlying pipe.

On horizontally split or multi-quadrant layouts this causes the cursor
to disappear over overlay regions while input/coordinate mapping remains
correct.

[HOW]
Skip test_pipe when searching for a pipe-split sibling on the same
layer, so only the other half of the split plane is merged into r2.
