Nit: thre is little use in the timestamps and the T275 tag. In future
patches you can safely ommit such data.

I think that it might be better to check typec_register_partner() result
in tcpm_typec_connect() and skip setting port->partner in case it
returned an error (an error message would be also beneficial).
See for example, how this is handled in ucsi_register_partner().

Then these checks can be turned into simple `if (port->partner)`.
