Bug Description

Secondary outputs on phones are reported as "DisplayPort":

[1440740318.830277] mirserver: Selected driver: android (version 0.16.0)

However in reality they're more likely HDMI. This seems to be a simple matter of the value being hardcoded:

    if (name == mga::DisplayName::external)
        type = mg::DisplayConfigurationOutputType::displayport;

Hmm, apparently not. The device in question actually uses Slimport so is more closely related to DisplayPort than HDMI.
