staging: comedi: daqboard2000: check CPLD status before writing firmware data

According to an old GPL'ed driver at
<ftp://ftp.mccdaq.com/downloads/iotech_software/DaqBoard_1000_2000_Series/Linux_driver_kernelv2.4.x/

>,
The CPLD status register can be checked to make sure that it is ready to
accept the next 16-bit word of FPGA firmware data, but that doesn't work
on older versions of the CPLD, where a simple delay should be used
between successive writes.  The current version of the Comedi driver
just uses a delay between successive writes.  Change it to check for the
newer CPLD in the `daqboard2000_load_firmware()`, and change the
firmware word writing function `daqboard2000_write_cpld()` to wait for
the status bit (`DB2K_CPLD_STATUS_TXREADY`, previously called
`DB2K_CPLD_TXDONE`) to be set for newer CPLD, or just delay for older CPLD.
Return an error if it times out waiting for the status bit.

The wait for the `DB2K_CPLD_STATUS_TXREADY` status bit to be set is
performed by new function `daqboard2000_wait_cpld_txready()`, which
returns 0 if the status bit is set within 100 microseconds, or
`-ETIMEDOUT` if not.
