USB: add USB-Persist facility



This patch (as886) adds the controversial USB-persist facility,
allowing USB devices to persist across a power loss during system
suspend.

The facility is controlled by a new Kconfig option (with appropriate
warnings about the potential dangers); when the option is off the
behavior will remain the same as it is now.  But when the option is
on, people will be able to use suspend-to-disk and keep their USB
filesystems intact -- something particularly valuable for small
machines where the root filesystem is on a USB device!
