These have not been reviewed for several years and contain many
obsolete/invalid values.
Currently only two packages utilize these flags:
media-sound/alsa-tools optionally installs several card-specific
utilities. It is unlikely that anything will break if these are
uninstalled by accident.
sys-firmware/alsa-firmware installs firmware for niche hardware
and is probably needed by very few users.
It probably makes more sense for the user to set ALSA_CARDS explicitly.
