ALSA: add DSD formats
This patch adds two formats for Direct Stream Digital (DSD), a
pulse-density encoding format which is described here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_Stream_Digital
DSD operates on 2.8, 5.6 or 11.2MHz sample rates and as a 1-bit
stream.
The two new types added by this patch describe streams that are capable
of handling DSD samples in DOP format as 8-bit or in 16-bit (or at a x8
or x16 data rate, respectively).
DSD itself specifies samples in *bit*, while DOP and ALSA handle them
as *bytes*. Hence, a factor of 8 or 16 has to be applied for the sample
rare configuration, according to the following table:
configured hardware
176.4KHz 352.8kHz 705.6KHz <---- sample rate
8-bit 2.8MHz 5.6MHz
16-bit 2.8Mhz 5.6MHz 11.2MHz
`-----------------------------'
actual DSD sample rates
