1.1 30-Mar-2024 thorpej

Add an example devpubd hook that makes stable path names, using symlinks,
for USB serial interfaces, regardless of where the interface is connected
or the order of enumeration. This requires the USB device to have a
"serialnumber" to function. Examples:

- uftdi serial adapter with two ports:

/dev/tty-uftdi-FT64S4YP-1 -> /dev/ttyU0
/dev/tty-uftdi-FT64S4YP-2 -> /dev/ttyU1

- uslsa serial adapter:

/dev/tty-uslsa-01E7ABCC -> /dev/ttyU4

This allows something like the following in /etc/remote:

sun3:dv=/dev/tty-uftdi-FT64S4YP-1:br#9600:pa=none:dc:

That path will always be stable regardless of which /dev/ttyU* node is
actually assigned when the serial adapter is plugged in.

Update for newer "minipro" programmers:
- T48 / T56 use the same USB VID/PID as the TL866II+.
- Add the T76 USB VID/PID.

branches: 1.1.4;
Add an example devpubd hook that looks for Minipro-compatible EEPROM
programmers and sets the access permissions to 0660.

1.1 30-Mar-2024 thorpej

Add an example devpubd hook that detects the generic USB interface
portion of a Tigard debug board and changes the permissions of the
appropriate /dev/ugenN.* nodes to allow access without superuser
permissions, suitable for using e.g. openocd with the device.

This example can be easily modified to support other generic USB devices
that have user-space drivers where running as the superuser is not desired.
