ASoC: core: Support for limiting the volume

Add support for the core to limit the maximum volume on an
existing control.
The function will modify the soc_mixer_control.max value
of the given control.
The new value must be lower than the original one (chip maximum)

If there is a need for limiting a gain on a given control,
than machine drivers can do the following in their
snd_soc_dai_link.init function:

snd_soc_limit_volume(codec, "TPA6140A2 Headphone Playback Volume", 21);

This will modify the original 31 (chip maximum) to 21, so user
space will not be able to set the gain higher than this.
