phaser: workaround malformed output with `mixer_ena=1` & `nco_ena=0` 

When Phaser is powered on and `init()` is first called, enabling the
DAC-mixer while leaving the NCO disabled causes malformed output.
This commit implements a workaround by making sure the NCO is enabled,
before being set to the disired state.

This commit also avoids the following procedure, resulting in
malformed output:
1. Operate Phaser with the DAC Mixer and NCO enabled
2. Set the NCO to a non-zero frequency
3. Disable the NCO in the device_db
4. Re-initialise Phaser

After this procedure, with CMIX disabled, incorrect output is produced.
To clear the fault one must re-enable the NCO and write the NCO freqeuncy
to zero before disabling the NCO.
