567627700a package/busybox: enable ttyUSB[0-9] when using mdev
Some of our systems are using ttyUSB0 devices as a serial console.
Add them to mdev.

07f46c2b6d package/busybox: support automatic module loading with mdev
A recently discussed on the mailing list:
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2016-February/154189.html

Our mdev configuration currently doesn't handle module loading. Fix that by:

- Telling mdev to run modprobe on hotplug events providing MODALIAS

- Adjust the init script to handle coldplug modalias events (E.G. modules
  for which the devices were already present before mdev was added as the
  hotplug handler). mdev -s should arguable handle this, but it doesn't.

fc71f7e6f2 busybox: provide /etc/mdev.conf if mdev is used
Without an mdev.conf file installed, mdev generates some /dev entries in
an incorrect or non-standard way. Some examples:
 1. /dev/null has permissions 660, but it should be accessible to normal
    users;
 2. alsa devices get created in /dev, not /dev/snd as is more common,
    and as the default value of BR2_PACKAGE_ALSA_LIB_DEVDIR suggests;
 3. event<N> files are created in /dev, not /dev/input.

This mdev.conf is a selection from the examples provided in the busybox
sources with minor tweaks.
