ALSA: snd-es1968: Make hardware volume buttons an input device (rev2)

The hardware volume handling code in essence just detects key presses, and
then does some hardcoded modification of the master volume based on which key
is pressed.

Clearly the right thing to do here is just report these keypresses to
userspace and let userspace decide what to with them.

This patch adds a Kconfig option which when enabled reports the volume
buttons as keypresses using an input device. When enabled this option
also gets rid of the ugly direct ac97 writes from the tasklet, the ac97lock
and the need for using a tasklet in general.
