Since Linux kernel 2.6.14 the USB device file-system has moved from
'/proc/bus/usb' to '/dev/bus/usb' but qemu has '/proc/bus/usb'
hard-coded in usb-linux.c

I explored the option of moving USBDEVFS_PATH to config.h but it would
require several additions to the configure script as well as the changes
to usb-linux.c

Therefore I have opted to detect which USB file-system is in use by
extending the error-detection in usb_host_scan() to first try 
'/dev/bus/usb' and if that fails, then try the pre-2.6.14
'/proc/bus/usb'.

The new code uses a (new) static char 'usb_devfs_path' set to the path
that works, and it is subsequently used in usb_host_device_open().
