Add a conf file for the VC4-HDMI sound card.

Hi,
Sorry for the noise, but I didn't send this patch to the alsa-lib maintainer on my first attempt.
This patch is adding a card config file for the audio sound card whose driver has been submitted here [1] (not accepted yet).
Since I am a total newbie to the alsa world, I'd like to get some feedback on this patch.
Also, the card only supports 2 to 8 channels, and I wonder if we should add a plug element to support mono streams, and where this element should be added (after or before the iec958 element).
Applied, thanks.
Thanks!
Any recommendations on how to restructure this so that things like 'aplay' from the console also work by default?
Well, once after you have your card config in /usr/share/alsa/cards/vc4-hdmi.conf, aplay should work as is.
If not, check /proc/asounds output. The entry looks like 0 [ID ]: DRIVER - SHORTNAME LONGNAME
and in your case, "DRIVER" must be "vc4-hdmi", as same as the config file name.
