[PATCH v3] ALSA: hda/cs8409: Fix for Dell Cirrus audio jack detect

[Steven 'Steve' Kendall]

On some models like the Dell Inspiron 15 3520, jack
detection does not work. This patch switches to
delayed work to fix jack plug on Chrome OS.

Assisted-by: LLM
Signed-off-by: Steven 'Steve' Kendall <skend@chromium.org>
---
Changes in v3:
- Unified sleep time for both cases.
- Removed some superfluous logic after some additional testing.
- Link to v2: https://patch.msgid.link/20260718-fix-headphone-plug-cirrus-dell-v2-1-f88121570d62@chromium.org

Changes in v2:
- Changes from v1 have been removed.
- New approach uses delayed work and also solves the issue on this machine.
- I'm now using the latest release of b4. Hopefully this addresses the formatting issues I was having!
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260713-fix-headphone-plug-cirrus-dell-v1-1-3c5157cd45cd@chromium.org

The code change looks acceptable, but the patch description gives too
little information.

And, should we apply it unconditionally all models with this codec?

They aren't always correct but often give good hints.
