nirenjan ea14d1132d Add implementation of stub libusb library
This commit adds the implementation of the stub libusb library in order
to use it in an LD_PRELOAD environment. This also adds the utility
programs to create a device list and sample output to compare against.

LibUSB mocker library

This folder contains a convenience library to mock the API of libusb. This is intended to be used as an LD_PRELOAD library when used by automated tests to verify the library without needing actual hardware to verify the tests.

While a manual test using real hardware is valuable, running some automated tests in an environment where the hardware is not available is equally valuable, especially if the source code is changing frequently.

Note that the API exported by the mocker is limited to the API used by libx52, as writing a complete USB simulator stack in software is not an easy job, nor is it necessary for the purposes of this project.
