patch-config_devd.c with device type autodetection

Hi, Hans!

I have tested your patch with in-kernel evdev implementation and found it
basically working.
Currently it does not work properly with default Xorg configuration file out of
box so I wrote some missed parts. Namely:
1. Event device type autodetection (libmagic-alike, derived from
xf86-input-evdev driver), so default catchall rules started to work for me
2. name/usb_id gathering via EVIOC* ioctls
3. Automatic blacklisting of native device interfaces if corresponding evdev
interface exists.
4. Some other minor improvements.

Resulting file is attached.
