[ALSA] PCM interface - rename SNDRV_PCM_TSTAMP_MMAP to SNDRV_PCM_TSTAMP_ENABLE

Change semantics for SNDRV_PCM_TSTAMP_MMAP. Doing timestamping only in
the interrupt handler might cause that hw_ptr is not related to actual
timestamp. With this change, grab timestamp at every hw_ptr update to
have always valid timestamp + ring buffer position pair.
With this change, SNDRV_PCM_TSTAMP_MMAP was renamed to
SNDRV_PCM_TSTAMP_ENABLE. It's no regression (I think).

[ALSA] Remove PCM sleep_min and tick

The 'tick' in PCM is set (again) via sw_params. And, nobody uses

(This is literally 'nobody', as I checked alsa-lib API calls in all
programs in major distros.)
Above all, if we need finer wake-ups for the position update, it's
basically an issue that the driver should solve, not tuned by each
application.

[ALSA] Remove PCM xfer_align sw params

The xfer_align sw_params parameter has never been used in a sane manner,
and no one understands what this does exactly. The current
implementation looks also buggy because it allows write of shorter size
than xfer_align. So, if you do partial writes, the write isn't actually
aligned at all.
Removing this parameter will make some pcm_lib_* code more readable
(and less buggy).

[PATCH] maximum latency tracking: ALSA support

Add maximum latency tracking to the ALSA subsystem for PCM playback. In
ALSA, the playback application controls the buffer size and thus indirectly
the period of latency that it can deal with. This patch uses 75% of the
total available latency as threshold to announce to the latency subsystem;
While 75% is a crude heuristic it's a quite reasonable one; the remaining
25% can be used for all driver processing for the next samples which is
also proportional to the size of the buffer.

With ogg123 a latency setting of about 4msec was seen (at 44Khz), while
with the "play" command a much longer maximum tolerable latency was seen.
Other, more multimedia oriented players as well as games, will have a lot
smaller buffers to allow better synchronization and those will actually get
into the latency domains where there is impact on the power management
rules.
