Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: usb-audio: Fix microphone sound on HD webcam.

I own an external usb Webcam, HD webcam, which had low mic volume and
inconsistent sound quality. Video works as expected.

[   96.092610][ 2] [ T3680] usb 5-2.2: Warning! Unlikely big volume range (=4096), cval->res is probably wrong.
[   96.102436][ 2] [ T3680] usb 5-2.2: [5] FU [Mic Capture Volume] ch = 1, val = 0/4096/1

Set up quirk cval->res to 16 for 256 levels,
Set GET_SAMPLE_RATE quirk flag to stop trying to get the sample rate.
Confirmed that happened anyway later due to the backoff mechanism,
After 3 failures.
