ALSA: hda - Allow patching with any vendor/subsystem ids

In the ugly real world, there area really broken devices that don't set
codec SSID correctly.  In such a case, the ID can be random, thus the
patching won't work reliably.

For applying the patch forcibly to such a device, the driver will skip
the vendor and/or subsystem ID checks when zero or a negative number is
given in [codec] section.

until another codec entry is given. Passing 0 or a negative number to
the first or the second value will make the check of the corresponding
field be skipped. It'll be useful for really broken devices that don't
initialize SSID properly.
The `[model]` line allows to change the model name of the each codec.
In the example above, it will be changed to model=auto.
