Subject: [PATCH v2] ALSA: usb-audio: Add quirk for Tascam Model 12

Tascam's Model 12 is a mixer which can also operate as a USB audio
interface.  The audio interface uses explicit feedback but it seems that
it does not correctly handle missing isochronous frames.

When injecting an xrun (or doing anything else that pauses the playback
stream) the feedback rate climbs (for example, at 44,100Hz nominal, I
see a stable rate around 44,099 but xrun injection sees this peak at
around 44,135 in most cases) and glitches are heard in the audio stream
for several seconds - this is significantly worse than the single glitch
expected for an underrun.

While the stream does normally recover and the feedback rate returns to
a stable value, I have seen some occurrences where this does not happen
and the rate continues to increase while no audio is heard from the
output.  I have not found a solid reproduction for this.

This misbehaviour can be avoided by totally resetting the stream state
by switching the interface to alt 0 and back before restarting the
playback stream.

Add a new quirk flag which forces the endpoint and interface to be
reconfigured whenever the stream is stopped, and use this for the Tascam
Model 12.

Separate interfaces are used for the playback and capture endpoints, so
resetting the playback interface here will not affect the capture stream
if it is running.  While there are two endpoints on the interface,
these are the OUT data endpoint and the IN explicit feedback endpoint
corresponding to it and these are always stopped and started together.

v2:
- Set ep->need_prepare not ep->need_setup; this was missed when forward
  porting the patch as need_prepare is new in 6.1
- Add more details to the commit message about why it is safe to reset
  the interface here
