patch to support USB-UIRT hardware

[Thatcher U. <tu...@tu...>]

[I mistakenly submitted this earlier, with the 60K patch attached]

On the support forums for the USB-UIRT hardware, David Nevel posted a
patch to lirc to support this device.  I can confirm it works just
dandy for me on a Debian testing box w/ prebuilt 2.6.8-1 kernel.  I
had to update the patch slightly to conform to current lirc CVS.

I can confirm that the hardware supports transmitting, receiving, and
learning using this patch.

I checked with David, and he gave me the go-ahead to submit this patch
for possible inclusion in lirc.  The patch is here:
