Add fido(4), a HID driver for FIDO/U2F security keys
While FIDO/U2F keys were already supported by the generic uhid(4) driver, this driver adds the first step to tighten the security of FIDO/U2F access. Specifically, users don't need read/write access to all USB/HID devices anymore and the driver also improves integration with pledge(2) and unveil(2): It is pledge-friendly because it doesn't require any ioctls to discover the device and unveil-friendly because it uses a single /dev/fido/* directory for its device nodes. It also allows to support FIDO/U2F in firefox without further weakening the "sandbox" of the browser. Firefox does not have a proper privsep design and many operations, such as U2F access, are handled directly by the main process. This means that the browser's "fat" main process needs direct read/write access to all USB HID devices, at least on other operating systems. With fido(4) we can support security keys in Firefox under OpenBSD without such a compromise. With this change, libfido2 stops using the ioctl to query the device vendor/product and just assumes "OpenBSD" "fido(4)" instead. The ioctl is still supported but there was no benefit in obtaining the vendor product or name; it also allows to use libfido2 under pledge. With feedback from deraadt@ and many others OK kettenis@ djm@ and jmc@ for the manpage bits
