dmaengine: centralize channel allocation, introduce dma_find_channel
Allowing multiple clients to each define their own channel allocation
scheme quickly leads to a pathological situation. For memory-to-memory
offload all clients can share a central allocator.
This simply moves the existing async_tx allocator to dmaengine with
minimal fixups:
* async_tx.c:get_chan_ref_by_cap --> dmaengine.c:nth_chan
* async_tx.c:async_tx_rebalance --> dmaengine.c:dma_channel_rebalance
* split out common code from async_tx.c:__async_tx_find_channel -->
dma_find_channel
