USB: Add a sysfs file to show LTM capabilities.
USB 3.0 devices can optionally support Latency Tolerance Messaging (LTM). Add a new sysfs file in the device directory to show whether a device is LTM capable. This file will be present for both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 devices. Signed-off-by: Sarah Sharp <sarah.a.sharp@linux.intel.com>

215Description:
216 USB 3.0 devices may optionally support Latency Tolerance
217 Messaging (LTM). They indicate their support by setting a bit
218 in the bmAttributes field of their SuperSpeed BOS descriptors.
219 If that bit is set for the device, ltm_capable will read "yes".
220 If the device doesn't support LTM, the file will read "no".
221 The file will be present for all speeds of USB devices, and will
222 always read "no" for USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 devices.
