ASoC: Allow drivers to specify how many bits are significant on a DAI
Most devices accept data in formats that don't correspond directly to their internal format. ALSA allows us to set a msbits constraint which tells userspace about this in case it finds it useful (for example, in order to avoid wasting effort dithering bits that will be ignored when raising the sample size of data) so provide a mechanism for drivers to specify the number of bits that are actually significant on a DAI and add the appropriate constraints along with all the others. This is done slightly awkwardly as the constraint is specified per sample size - we loop over every possible sample size, including ones that the device doesn't support and including ones that have fewer bits than are actually used, but this is harmless as the upper layers do the right thing in these cases.
