USB: Add optional match for interface class to dynamic ID facility 

When adding the ID of a composite device dynamically to a driver, all
hitherto unbound interfaces are bound to this driver regardless of their
class, which may not be intended.
The patch adds the option to tell the targeted interface class to a driver
via the "new_id" attribute, in addition to the device ID.
Also, it appends the ABI documentation accordingly.

Example:
$ echo "1234 2a2a ff" >/sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/option1/new_id
will bind only vendor-specific interfaces to the 3G driver.

Write a 1 to force the device to disconnect

Description:
Writing a device ID to this file will attempt to
dynamically add a new device ID to a USB device driver.
This may allow the driver to support more hardware than
was included in the driver's static device ID support
table at compile time. The format for the device ID is:
idVendor idProduct bInterfaceClass.
The vendor ID and device ID fields are required, the
interface class is optional.
Upon successfully adding an ID, the driver will probe
for the device and attempt to bind to it. For example:
# echo "8086 10f5" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/foo/new_id
What: /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/.../new_id
Date: October 2011
Contact: linux-usb@vger.kernel.org
Description:
For serial USB drivers, this attribute appears under the
extra bus folder "usb-serial" in sysfs; apart from that
difference, all descriptions from the entry
"/sys/bus/usb/drivers/.../new_id" apply.
