Add a capability which allows dmaengine consumers to query whether a dmaengine
controller supports the DMA_PAUSE and DMA_RESUME commands. Sometimes a user of
the dmaengine API needs to know in advance if a channel will support
pause/resume. E.g. in ALSA the information whether it is possible to
pause/resume a audio stream or whether it is necessary to abort and restart the
stream is communicated to userspace so it can act accordingly.
