There are inexpensive usb hub + ethernet dongles on the market which
are useful for adding connectivity to the raspberry pi zero (which
has no network interface and only one usb port) or zero w (which has
wifi but no ethernet).  This patch makes at least one such dongle
work for Plan 9.

(It's already applied on the new 9pi.img.gz)

Make reading of descriptors more robust to support more usb cdc-ecm devices,
and add realtek rtl8152 to usbdb for automatic recognition.
Note: this obsoletes the earlier patch maybe/usb-short-desc
