udev usb0 control

[Joel Newkirk]

I'm sorry, I don't follow.  Sensing ethernet/RNDIS link /should/ be a
better idea, but doesn't work AFAICS with g_ether.

The question is if someone knows of a better way to detect that the USB
plug has been inserted/removed: when in USB device mode (standard state for
Freerunner, at least under 2007.x/2008.x/FDOM/Raster/FSO) udev appears
unable to sense the loss of link on usb0, so we need a reliable means of
automatically bringing up/down usb0 when plugged/unplugged.
