docs: usb: rename files to .rst and add them to drivers-api
While there are a mix of things here, most of the stuff were written from Kernel developer's PoV. So, add them to the driver-api book. A follow up for this patch would be to move documents from there that are specific to sysadmins, adding them to the admin-guide.

-=============================
-USB 7-Segment Numeric Display
-=============================
-
-Manufactured by Delcom Engineering
-
-Device Information
-------------------
-USB VENDOR_ID 0x0fc5
-USB PRODUCT_ID 0x1227
-Both the 6 character and 8 character displays have PRODUCT_ID,
-and according to Delcom Engineering no queryable information
-can be obtained from the device to tell them apart.
-
-Device Modes
-------------
-By default, the driver assumes the display is only 6 characters
-The mode for 6 characters is:
-
- MSB 0x06; LSB 0x3f
-
-For the 8 character display:
-
- MSB 0x08; LSB 0xff
-
-The device can accept "text" either in raw, hex, or ascii textmode.
-raw controls each segment manually,
-hex expects a value between 0-15 per character,
-ascii expects a value between '0'-'9' and 'A'-'F'.
-The default is ascii.
-
-Device Operation
-----------------
-1. Turn on the device:
- echo 1 > /sys/bus/usb/.../powered
-2. Set the device's mode:
- echo $mode_msb > /sys/bus/usb/.../mode_msb
- echo $mode_lsb > /sys/bus/usb/.../mode_lsb
-3. Set the textmode:
- echo $textmode > /sys/bus/usb/.../textmode
-4. set the text (for example):
- echo "123ABC" > /sys/bus/usb/.../text (ascii)
- echo "A1B2" > /sys/bus/usb/.../text (ascii)
- echo -ne "\x01\x02\x03" > /sys/bus/usb/.../text (hex)
-5. Set the decimal places.
- The device has either 6 or 8 decimal points.
- to set the nth decimal place calculate 10 ** n
- and echo it in to /sys/bus/usb/.../decimals
- To set multiple decimals points sum up each power.
- For example, to set the 0th and 3rd decimal place
- echo 1001 > /sys/bus/usb/.../decimals
