usbnet: CDC EEM support (v5)

This introduces a CDC Ethernet Emulation Model (EEM) host side
driver to support USB EEM devices.

EEM is different from the Ethernet Control Model (ECM) currently
supported by the "CDC Ethernet" driver.  One key difference is
that it doesn't require of USB interface alternate settings to
manage interface state; some maldesigned hardware can't handle
that part of USB.  It also avoids a separate USB interface for
control and status updates.

checks, improve fault handling, EEM conformance updates, cleanup ]
