tools: usb: p9_fwd: add usb gadget packet forwarder script

This patch is adding an small python tool to forward 9pfs requests from the USB gadget to an existing 9pfs TCP server. Since currently all 9pfs servers lack support for the usb transport this tool is an useful helper to get started. Refer the Documentation section "USBG Example" in Documentation/filesystems/9p.rst on how to use it.

70USBG Example
71============
72
73The USB host exports a filesystem, while the gadget on the USB device
74side makes it mountable.
75
76Diod (9pfs server) and the forwarder are on the development host, where
77the root filesystem is actually stored. The gadget is initialized during
78boot (or later) on the embedded board. Then the forwarder will find it
79on the USB bus and start forwarding requests.
80
81In this case the 9p requests come from the device and are handled by the
82host. The reason is that USB device ports are normally not available on
83PCs, so a connection in the other direction would not work.
84
85When using the usbg transport, for now there is no native usb host
86service capable to handle the requests from the gadget driver. For
87this we have to use the extra python tool p9_fwd.py from tools/usb.
88
89Just start the 9pfs capable network server like diod/nfs-ganesha e.g.:
90
91 $ diod -f -n -d 0 -S -l 0.0.0.0:9999 -e $PWD
92
93Optionaly scan your bus if there are more then one usbg gadgets to find their path:
94
95 $ python $kernel_dir/tools/usb/p9_fwd.py list
96
97 Bus | Addr | Manufacturer | Product | ID | Path
98 --- | ---- | ---------------- | ---------------- | --------- | ----
99 2 | 67 | unknown | unknown | 1d6b:0109 | 2-1.1.2
100 2 | 68 | unknown | unknown | 1d6b:0109 | 2-1.1.3
101
102Then start the python transport:
103
104 $ python $kernel_dir/tools/usb/p9_fwd.py --path 2-1.1.2 connect -p 9999
105
106After that the gadget driver can be used as described above.
107
108One use-case is to use it as an alternative to NFS root booting during
109the development of embedded Linux devices.
