[PATCH v2 2/3] ASoC: soc-core: Add core support for ignoring suspend on selected DAPM widgets

The motivation for keeping the propname argument is to align with
existing snd_soc_of_parse_*() helper prototypes, which always take
(struct snd_soc_card *card, const char *propname).

I agree that in this case the property name is fixed to
"ignore-suspend-widgets". We can simplify the helper by removing it if
preferred.
