[PATCH v8 10/14] ALSA: virtio: prioritize staged capture period work

[Joonho Lee <mynameisjune111@gmail.com>]

Queue staged capture period notifications on system_highpri_wq through
the common scheduling helper. This allows capture notifications to make
progress when ordinary workqueue workers are delayed by CPU contention.
Playback and ordinary capture keep schedule_work().

This preserves the existing priority proposal without mixing RESET or
lifecycle changes into it. It provides no hard real-time deadline and
cannot prevent a userspace reader from overrunning its buffer.
