ALSA: fireface: use the same size of period for PCM substreams in AMDTP streams

In current implementation, when opening a PCM substream, it's needed to
check whether the opposite PCM substream runs. This is to assign
effectual constraints (e.g. sampling rate) to opened PCM substream.

The number of PCM substreams on AMDTP streams in domain is recorded in
own structure. Usage of this count is an alternative of the above check.
This is better because the count is incremented in pcm.hw_params earlier
than pcm.trigger.

This commit replaces the check with the substream count and the value for
the size of PCM period. Unlike the other drivers in ALSA firewire stack,
no MIDI substream is multiplexed into AMDTP stream.

I note that Fireface AMDTP protocol has a quirk that tx stream includes
blank isochronous cycle. The packet for blank cycle is equivalent to
empty or NODATA packet in IEC 61883-6, thus the protocol is similar to
blocking transmission method of IEC 61883-6. On the other hand, rx
stream adopts non-blocking transmission method. Although the difference
of transmission method between tx/rx streams precisely brings different
timing for a certain amount of events due to their different calculation
for data blocks per packet, it's possible to approximate enough amount
of events mostly has the same timing. Actually current ALSA IEC 61883-1/6
engine uses large amount of data blocks for each hardware IRQ
(=16 packets).
