libpayload: usb: xhci: Prevent address reuse
We have been trying to avoid reassigning previously used USB addresses to different devices since CL:197420, because some devices seem to take issue with that. Unfortunately, that patch doesn't affect XHCI: those controllers insist on chosing addresses on their own. The only way to prevent them from reusing a previously assigned address is to not disable that slot at all. This patch implements address reuse avoidance on XHCI by not disabling slots when a device is detatched (which may occur both on physical detachment or if we simply couldn't find a driver for that device). Instead, we just release as many resources as we can for detached devices (by dropping all endpoint contexts) and defer the final cleanup until the point where the controller actually runs out of resources (a point that we probably don't often reach in most firmware scenarios). BRANCH=none BUG=chrome-os-partner:42181 TEST=Booted an Oak plugged into a Servo without having a driver for the SMSC network chip, observed that it could still enumerate the next device afterwards. Kept unplugging/replugging stuff until the cleanup triggered and made sure the controller still worked after that. Also played around a bit on a Falco without issues.
