ASoC: SOF: Use high-priority workqueue for PCM period elapsed

Browse Source 
The snd_sof_pcm_period_elapsed function currently schedules work on the
system-wide workqueue. This can lead to potential delays or jitter in
audio processing if the system workqueue is busy with other tasks.

To improve real-time performance and ensure timely processing of PCM
periods, we can use the system_highpri_wq instead of the default work
queue.

In performance testing, this change significantly reduced the observed
scheduling delays. For instance, under load(stressapptest -M 15000 -m
60), the maximum delay dropped from 9ms on the system workqueue to 5ms
on the dedicated high-priority workqueue.
