drm/amd/display: set new_stream to NULL after release

In dm_update_crtc_state(), the skip_modeset path releases new_stream
via dc_stream_release() but does not set the pointer to NULL.

If a later error (e.g., color management failure) triggers the fail
label, the error path calls dc_stream_release() again on the same
dangling pointer, causing a double release and potential use-after-free.

Fix this by setting new_stream to NULL after the initial release.

Fixes: 9b690ef3c704 ("drm/amd/display: Avoid full modeset when not required")
