The recent update of sound/*.h to sync with the latest Linus uapi
files broke the build of alsa-tools programs. These files used to be
a modified version of Linux sound/* header files, so that they could
be built without Linux headers. The special prefix like __user and
other things were worked around there.
We may do that again, but a better approach is to fix those things in
Linux kernel uapi side, while we keep the minimal workaround in
alsa-lib such as the __u16 and co type definitions.
This patch is such an attempt, namely:
- Keep the original $LINUX/uapi/sound/*.h in include/sound/uapi
directory
- The "fixes" are applied to some uapi headers, so that they don't
contain Linux-specific prefix and use of opaque struct like
snd_ctl_elem_id
- The uapi headers are included indirectly from include/sound/*.h
- Some headers have inclusion of type_compat.h for the Linux variable
types and prefixes
- type_compat.h tries to use <linux/types.h> when __linux__ is
defined, instead of the own conflicting definitions
The last type might need a bit more adjustment depending on the
compiler, but it can be fixed locally without disturbing else.

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.
