sndiod: Add the server.mode control making the setting dynamic

The default mode remains "-m play,rec" but now it can be changed with
sndioctl(1). If the server is switched to play-only mode, then
existing clients will start recording silence. Similarly if it's
switched to rec-only mode, clients are muted.
