[PATCH 2/3] ALSA: core: Add scoped cleanup helper for card references

["Cássio Gabriel" <cassiogabrielcontato@gmail.com>]

Several ALSA paths acquire temporary card references with snd_card_ref()
and release them manually with snd_card_unref(). control_led.c already
defines a local cleanup helper for this pattern, while other core paths
still open-code the release.

Move the helper to the common ALSA core header and use it in control-layer
card-reference paths. This makes the ownership rule explicit and avoids
future missing-unref mistakes when adding early exits.

No functional change is intended.
