Bluetooth: btusb: Add Realtek 8723A/8723B/8761A/8821A support
Realtek ship a variety of bluetooth USB devices that identify
themselves with standard USB Bluetooth device class values, but
require a special driver to actually work. Without that driver,
you never get any scan results.
More recently however, Realtek appear to have wisened up and simply
posted a firmware update that makes these devices comply with
normal btusb protocols. The firmware needs to be uploaded on each boot.
Based on Realtek code from https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8723au_bt
('new' branch).
This enables bluetooth support in the Gigabyte Brix GB-BXBT-2807 which
has this RTL8723BE USB device:

There is no change to the USB descriptor after firmware update,
however the version read by HCI_OP_READ_LOCAL_VERSION changes from
0x8723 to 0x3083.
This has also been tested on RTL8723AE and RTL8821AE. Support for
RTL8761A has also been added, but that is untested.
