ALSA: 6fire: fix use-after-free on disconnect

In usb6fire_chip_abort(), the chip struct is allocated as the card's
private data (via snd_card_new with sizeof(struct sfire_chip)).  When
snd_card_free_when_closed() is called and no file handles are open, the
card and embedded chip are freed synchronously.  The subsequent
chip->card = NULL write then hits freed slab memory.

Call trace:
  usb6fire_chip_abort sound/usb/6fire/chip.c:59 [inline]
  usb6fire_chip_disconnect+0x348/0x358 sound/usb/6fire/chip.c:182
  usb_unbind_interface+0x1a8/0x88c drivers/usb/core/driver.c:458
  ...
  hub_event+0x1a04/0x4518 drivers/usb/core/hub.c:5953

Fix by moving the card lifecycle out of usb6fire_chip_abort() and into
usb6fire_chip_disconnect().  The card pointer is saved in a local
before any teardown, snd_card_disconnect() is called first to prevent
new opens, URBs are aborted while chip is still valid, and
snd_card_free_when_closed() is called last so chip is never accessed
after the card may be freed.
