[PATCH v3 4/5] sndif: Add explicit back and front synchronization

[Oleksandr Andrushchenko <andr2000@gmail.com>]

From: Oleksandr Andrushchenko <oleksandr_andrushchenko@epam.com>

In order to provide explicit synchronization between backend and
frontend the following changes are introduced in the protocol:
 - add new ring buffer for sending asynchronous events from
   backend to frontend to report number of bytes played by the
   frontend (XENSND_EVT_CUR_POS)
 - introduce trigger events for playback control: start/stop/pause/resume
 - add "req-" prefix to event-channel and ring-ref to unify naming
   of the Xen event channels for requests and events
