sierra: driver interface blacklisting

Interface blacklisting is necessary for non-serial interfaces that are handled
by a different driver. The interface blacklisting is implemented in sierra
driver per device. Each device in need of a blacklist has a static information
array kept in the driver. This array contains the interface numbers that are
blacklisted. The pointer for each blacklist array and the length
of that blacklist are 'bundled' in data structure sierra_iface_info. A pointer
to this information is set in id_table when the device is added to the id_table.

The following is summary of changes we have made to sierra.c driver in
this patch dealing with interface blacklisting support:
- Added data structure sierra_iface_info and function is_blacklisted()
to support blacklisting
- Modified sierra_probe() to handle blacklisted interfaces accordingly
- Improved comments in id_table
- Added new device in id_table with blacklist interface support
