Instead of keeping modified asound.h and asequencer.h, copy the files
in the kernel include/uapi/sound as is, and give some renames for
avoiding conflicts with alsa-lib's definitions.
Some structs, unions and typedefs in asound.h and asequencer.h are
once renamed in local.h before inclusion, then renamed back again.
A bonus by this action is that some local codes don't have to refer to
sndrv_xxx any longer. However, some codes like src/seq/seq.c need
explicit cast because of unavoidable conflicts of struct types.
Another significant change is that now snd_pcm_sw_params.period_event
field is removed. Instead, try to access the last reserved field
internally.

Remove obsoleted sequencer instrument layer from alsa-lib.
The old symbols are compiled in as default as dummy functions
(unless --disable-old-symbols is given to configure) so that
the old binaries can still work more or less.
Remove enum in structs from kernel API headers.
The enum is not always equivalent with int on some architectures.

Add four new information flags SNDRV_SEQ_PORT_TYPE_HARDWARE, _SOFTWARE,
_SYNTHESIZER, _PORT for sequencer ports. This makes it easier for apps
like Rosegarden to make policy decisions based on the port type.
Reduce the maximum possible number of global clients to 16 to make
more numbers available for card clients, and allow dynamically allocated
card client numbers to share the same range as application client
numbers to make sure that all 32 cards can be used at the same time.
