Thanks Hika.  Just putting in the modeset/video got me to the point  where
I have HDMI output after boot.  While looking in dmesg for the port name, I
saw a bunch of errors saying the EDID checksum is invalid, which I'm
guessing is why it decided not to activate the port.

At least I'm not at a dead end now.  Now to investigate that error.  If
there's not an easy fix, there's surely a way for me to get the EDID info
by connecting directly to the TV and then using that to force the
configuration when connecting through the receiver.
