[RFC PATCH 3/9] conf: Read a host-specific asoundrc

On systems with a network mounted home directory this is thoroughly
useful to allow for a core set of asoundrc settings, but with different
settings on different hosts.

It's not possibly to implement this in our own asoundrc or local
customisation, as it's too late. The installation file must be modified.

This is similar to ~/.Xdefaults-* on some systems.
