usb: vstusb.c : new driver for spectrometers used by Vernier Software & Technology, Inc.

This patch adds the vstusb driver to the drivers/usb/misc directory.
This driver provides support for Vernier Software & Technology
spectrometers, all made by Ocean Optics. The driver provides both IOCTL
and read()/write() methods for sending raw data to spectrometers across
the bulk channel. Each method allows for a configured timeout.
