    sound: Separate implementations for SNDCTL_AUDIOINFO[_EX] and
SNDCTL_ENGINEINFO

    FreeBSD's implementation of SNDCTL_AUDIOINFO[_EX] and SNDCTL_ENGINEINFO
    does not exactly work as intended. The problem is essentially that both
    IOCTLs return the same information, while in fact the information
    returned currently by dsp_oss_audioinfo() is what _only_
    SNDCTL_ENGINEINFO is meant to return.

    This behavior is also noted in the OSS manual [1] (see bold paragraph in
    "Audio engines and device files" section), but since e8c0d15a64fa
    ("sound: Get rid of snd_clone and use DEVFS_CDEVPRIV(9)") we can
    actually fix this, because we now expose only a single device for each
    soundcard, and create the engines (channels) internally.
    SNDCTL_ENGINEINFO will now report info about all channels in a given
    device, and SNDCTL_AUDIOINFO[_EX] will only report information about
    /dev/dspX.

    To make this work, we also have to modify the SNDCTL_SYSINFO IOCTL to
    report the number of audio devices and audio engines correctly.

    While here, modernize the minimum and maximum channel counting in both
    SNDCTL_AUDIOINFO[_EX] and SNDCTL_ENGINEINFO. Currently these IOCTLs will
    report only up to 2 channels, which is no longer the case.
