usb: Add environment based device ignorelist

Add the environment variable "usb_ignorelist" to prevent USB devices
listed in it from being bound to drivers. This allows to ignore devices
which are undesirable or trigger bugs in u-boot's USB stack.
Devices emulating keyboards are one example of undesirable devices as
u-boot currently supports only a single USB keyboard device. Most
commonly, people run into this with Yubikeys, so let's ignore those in
the default environment.

Based on previous USB keyboard specific patches for the same purpose.

usb_ignorelist
Ignore USB devices to prevent binding them to an USB device driver. This can
be used to ignore devices are for some reason undesirable or causes crashes
u-boot's USB stack.
An example for undesired behavior is the keyboard emulation of security keys
like Yubikeys. U-boot currently supports only a single USB keyboard device
so try to probe an useful keyboard device. The default environment blocks
Yubico devices as common devices emulating keyboards.
Devices are matched by idVendor and idProduct. The variable contains a comma
separated list of idVendor:idProduct pairs as hexadecimal numbers joined
by a colon. '*' functions as a wildcard for idProduct to block all devices
with the specified idVendor.
