[RFC PATCH v3 13/13] ASoC: soc-pcm: fix BE handling of PAUSE_RELEASE

A BE connected to more than one FE, e.g. in a mixer case, can go
through the following transitions.

play FE1    -> BE state is START
pause FE1   -> BE state is PAUSED
play FE2    -> BE state is START
stop FE2    -> BE state is STOP (see note [1] below)
release FE1 -> BE state is START
stop FE1    -> BE state is STOP

play FE1    -> BE state is START
pause FE1   -> BE state is PAUSED
play FE2    -> BE state is START
release FE1 -> BE state is START
stop FE2    -> BE state is START
stop FE1    -> BE state is STOP

The existing code for PAUSE_RELEASE only allows for the case where the
BE is paused, which clearly would not work in the sequences above.

Extend the allowed states to restart the BE when PAUSE_RELEASE is
received.

[1] the existing logic does not move the BE state back to PAUSED when
the FE2 is stopped. This patch does not change the logic; it would be
painful to keep a history of changes on the FE side, the state machine
is already rather complicated with transitions based on the last BE
state and the trigger type.
