[IRDA]: Initial support for MCS7780 based dongles

The MosChip MCS7780 chipset is an IrDA USB bridge that
doesn't conform with the IrDA-USB standard and thus needs
its separate driver.
Tested on an actual MCS7780 based dongle.

Original implementation by Brian Pugh <bpugh@cs.pdx.edu>

Say Y or M here if you want to build support for the MosChip
MCS7780 IrDA-USB bridge device driver.
USB bridge based on the MosChip MCS7780 don't conform to the
IrDA-USB device class specification, and therefore need their
own specific driver. Those dongles support SIR and FIR (4Mbps)
speeds.
To compile it as a module, choose M here: the module will be called
mcs7780.
