ASoC: Begin to factor out register cache I/O functions

A lot of CODECs share the same register data formats and therefore
replicate the code to manage access to and caching of the register
map. In order to reduce code duplication centralised versions of
this code will be introduced with drivers able to configure the use
of the common code by calling the new snd_soc_codec_set_cache_io()
API call during startup.

As an initial user the 7 bit address/9 bit data format used by many
Wolfson devices is supported for write only CODECs and the drivers
with straightforward register cache implementations are converted to
use it.
