[Fix] Without this fix, the pin will be regarded as microphone, and the jack name is "Mic Phantom", it is always on in the pulseaudio even nothing is plugged into the jack. So the UI is confusing to users since the microphone always shows up in the UI even there is no microphone plugged. After adding this flag, the jack name is "Headset Mic Phantom", then the pulseaudio can handle its detection correctly. [Test Case] After booting up the system, and without plugging anything in the audio combo jack, there is nothing in the input tab of sound-setting, then plug a headset in the jack, the what-did-you-plug-in dialogue pops up, users can select headset mic from UI, and headset-mic shows up in the sound-setting, we can record sound via headset-mic [Regression Potential] Very low, since this patch is specific for ALC255_FIXUP_DELL_HEADSET_MIC which is only used by Dell precision 3630 by now.
