usb: make usb port a real device
This patch turns each USB port on a hub into a new struct device. This new device has the USB hub interface device as its parent. The port devices are stored in a new structure (usb_port), and an array of usb_ports are dynamically allocated once we know how many ports the USB hub has. Move the port_owner variable out of usb_hub and into this new structure. A new file will be created in the hub interface sysfs directory, so add documentation.
