[RFC PATCH v2 3/6] ALSA: compress: add flags to snd_compr_caps to expose dsp caps

Some of the DSPs like Qualcomm QDSP has ablity to change decoders
dynamically on a single stream, This could be used for features
like Cross Fade or gapless with different codec profile tracks.

Exposing such features in flags variable of compress caps descriptor
would provide userspace more flexibity in usings dsp features.

For now only one flag of switching decoders is added which is used
in subsequent patches.
