[PATCH v3 10/59] dmaengine: Create a generic dma_slave_caps callback

dma_slave_caps is very important to the generic layers that might interact with
dmaengine, such as ASoC. Unfortunately, it has been added as yet another
dma_device callback, and most of the existing drivers haven't implemented it,
reducing its reliability.

Introduce a generic behaviour and a flag to trigger it. In case this flag
hasn't been set, fall back to the old mechanism.
