Aim of this patch is to add  'Playback Channel Map' control to export 
audio capabilities in term of HDMI sink speakers allocation.
This patch follow discussion initiates here: 
[RFC] ASOC: HDMI audio info frame speaker allocation
http://www.spinics.net/lists/alsa-devel/msg57363.html

The code is fully inspired from HDA driver.
On hw_param, HDMI sink speaker capabilities are exported via TLV ops
and  a CEA allocation is choson, based on ELD information and the number of
channels requested by user.

Mains differences with HDA implementation are:
 - Control is read only
 - Channel swap is not supported. Consequence is that unused channel in
   the mid of CEA audio infoframe channel mapping are considered as
   active.
   example for channel allocation 0x02: FL, FR, 0, FC)
	This configuration is only available for a 4 channels stream.
  - Channel allocation table has been reordered and HDMI 2.0 is not
    supported.
