Experimental patch for usb attached (actually two, the first is pure 
code motion though so the second with the actual changes becomes more 
readable).

That makes migration support switchable using a property, so we can use 
compatibility properties to disable sending the section to an older version.

That requires usb-hid.c call vmstate_register manually.  Not that nice.
We could move the needed() callback from VMStateSubsection to 
VMStateDescription, so it is possible to send complete sections 
conditionally.

Comments?

cheers,
   Gerd
