ALSA: hda/realtek: Fix cold-boot headset misdetection on Acer Aspire A515-57G

On the Acer Aspire A515-57G (PCI SSID 1025:1616), if headphones are
already inserted into the combo jack before the codec powers up (a cold
boot with the plug already seated), the impedance-based headset-type
sensing races and misclassifies the jack. This drives the wrong output
configuration and is audible as missing center-panned content (e.g.
vocals) while panned content plays normally.

A genuine physical unplug/replug after boot reliably fixes this by
forcing a fresh sense transient, which is a strong hint about the
underlying cause: the sensing hardware appears to need a settled,
freshly-triggered read rather than the one-shot classification done
during the normal HDA_FIXUP_ACT_INIT pass.

Add a machine-specific fixup that, on cold boot only (not S3/S4 resume,
which already gets its own re-check), waits briefly after the normal
init-time decision and then forces a fresh headset-mode classification
by resetting the cached mode and re-invoking the existing
alc_fixup_headset_mode() path -- mirroring what a manual replug already
does. The wait+recheck is skipped whenever the first pass already
determined nothing is plugged in, to avoid adding boot latency on the
common case.

Chain into the existing ALC256_FIXUP_ACER_SFG16_MICMUTE_LED fixup so
this quirk-table entry keeps providing mic-mute LED support alongside
the cold-boot headset fix.

Tested on kernel 7.1.9 by building the affected module standalone and
confirming cold boot with headphones pre-inserted plays correctly from
the very first sample, across multiple boots (including a full restart,
and headphones inserted mid-POST rather than before power-on), with no
crashes or warnings and no behavioral difference from a real
post-replug recovery.
