In my homelab, I have different FTDI serial converters connected to
several utility meters. They all have identical vendor/device, but
different serials.
In order to detect a specific FTDI unit (eg. the one connected to my
electricity meter), I'd like feature labels triggered by a specific USB
serial.

Mount /usr/lib and /usr/src as /host-usr/lib and /host-usr/src inside the pod
to allow NFD to search for the kernel configuration file inside /usr.
This solves the problem of the kernel config file not being present in /boot
on s390x RHCOS.

This builds on the PCI support to enable the discovery of USB devices.
This is primarily intended to be used for the discovery of Edge-based
heterogeneous accelerators that are connected via USB, such as the Coral
USB Accelerator and the Intel NCS2 - our main motivation for adding this
capability to NFD, and as part of our work in the SODALITE H2020
project.
USB devices may define their base class at either the device or
interface levels. In the case where no device class is set, the
per-device interfaces are enumerated instead. USB devices may
furthermore have multiple interfaces, which may or may not use the
identical class across each interface. We therefore report device
existence for each unique class definition to enable more fine-grained
labelling and node selection.
The default labelling format includes the class, vendor and device
(product) IDs, as follows:
feature.node.kubernetes.io/usb-fe_1a6e_089a.present=true
As with PCI, a subset of device classes are whitelisted for matching.
By default, there are only a subset of device classes under which
accelerators tend to be mapped, which is used as the basis for
the whitelist. These are:
- Video
- Miscellaneous
- Application Specific
- Vendor Specific
For those interested in matching other classes, this may be extended
by using the UsbId rule provided through the custom source. A full
list of class codes is provided by the USB-IF at:
https://www.usb.org/defined-class-codes
For the moment, owing to a lack of a demonstrable use case, neither
the subclass nor the protocol information are exposed. If this
becomes necessary, support for these attributes can be trivially
added.

This will enable code reuse across sources while preventing
packages which are not under 'source' to import it.
subsequent commits will introduce the 'custom' source which
will use the logic.
