[PATCH 16/31] ALSA: usb-audio: scarlett2: Add Gen 3 mixer support

Hello Takashi!

Since Focusrite devices are too advanced in settings, the overall amount of 256 
controls is not enough for these devices (like 18i20).
I would like also to extend this constant up to 1024 or even more since adding 
support of software configuration of the device also
can exceed the amount of 512 control elements.

Let's assume we have a mute switch for each mixer gain setting. For the 18i20 
device this will give:
12 inputs * 25 outputs = 300 mute switches.

So I think this constant should be increased rapidly up to 1024 or even to 2048.

Best,
Vladimir
