[ALSA] Introduce slots option to snd module

Introduced the global 'slots' option to snd module.  This option provides
an alternative way to handle the order of multiple sound card instances.
It's an easier approach to avoid conflict with hotplug devices, and can
be used together with the existing 'order' option of each card driver.

This option takes multiple strings.

In this example, the interwave card is always loaded as the first card
(index 0) and ens1371 as the second (index 1).
Alternative (and new) way to fixate the slot assignment is to use
"slots" option of snd module. In the case above, specify like the
following:
options snd slots=snd-interwave,snd-ens1371
Then, the first slot (#0) is reserved for snd-interwave driver, and
the second (#1) for snd-ens1371. You can omit index option in each
driver if slots option is used (although you can still have them at
the same time as long as they don't conflict).
The slots option is especially useful for avoiding the possible
hot-plugging and the resultant slot conflict. For example, in the
case above again, the first two slots are already reserved. If any
other driver (e.g. snd-usb-audio) is loaded before snd-interwave or
snd-ens1371, it will be assigned to the third or later slot.
