This patch adds USB capabilities to libpayload. It requires some

memalign implementation (eg. the one I sent yesterday).
Features:
 - UHCI controller driver
 - UHCI root hub driver
 - USB MSC (Mass Storage Class) driver
 - skeleton of a USB HID driver
   (requires better interrupt transfer handling, which is TODO)
 - skeleton of a USB hub driver
   (needs several blank spots filled in, eg. power management.
    Again: TODO)

OHCI and EHCI are not supported, though OHCI support should be rather
easy as the stack provides reasonable abstractions (or so I hope). EHCI
will probably be more complicated.

Isochronous transfers (eg. webcams, audio stuff, ...) are not supported.
They can be, but I doubt we'll have a reason for that in the boot
environment.

The MSC driver was tested against a couple of USB flash drives, and
should be reasonably tolerant by now. But I probably underestimate
the amount of bugs present in USB flash drives, so feedback is welcome.
