[v14,32/53] ALSA: usb-audio: Check for support for requested audio format

Allow for checks on a specific USB audio device to see if a requested PCM
format is supported.  This is needed for support when playback is
initiated by the ASoC USB backend path.

Ok, took a look at it a bit more and should have gotten all the 
dependencies addressed through Kconfigs.  Thanks for the review comments 
and feedback.
