supports_usb_power_delivery will be updated if typec_set_pwr_opmode()
is called with value TYPEC_PWR_MODE_PD, and it should be called, also
in tcpm.c, always when USB PD contract has been established. I did not
check the latest tcpm.c code, but I assume it does that. If it
doesn't, it needs to be fixed of course.

Are you sure you really have the contract established?


Thanks,
