ALSA: dummy - Fake buffer allocations

Instead of allocating the real buffers, use a fake buffer and ignore
read/write in the dummy driver so that we can save the resources.
For mmap, a single page (unique to the direction, though) is reused
to all buffers.

When the app requires to read/write the real buffers, pass fake_buffer=0
module option at loading time.  This will get back to the old behavior.

2 = interleaved without mmap

As default, snd-dummy drivers doesn't allocate the real buffers
but either ignores read/write or mmap a single dummy page to all
buffer pages, in order to save the resouces. If your apps need
the read/ written buffer data to be consistent, pass fake_buffer=0
option.
The power-management is supported.
