evdev: fall back to SND_BELL if SND_TONE is unsupported

The gpio-beeper driver does not support SND_TONE, but SND_BELL. So we send SND_BELL instead when SND_TONE is not supported. Adapted the pull request from Bastian Krause <[email protected]> from johnath#17 for spkr-beep. No well-known devices names for those devices are known, so we cannot try them by default.
