[usb] Allow usb_stream() to enforce a terminating short packet
Some USB endpoints require that a short packet be used to terminate
transfers, since they have no other way to determine message
boundaries. If the message length happens to be an exact multiple of
the USB packet size, then this requires the use of an additional
zero-length packet.

Some protocols (such as ARP) may modify the received packet and re-use
the same I/O buffer for transmission of a reply. To allow this,
reserve sufficient headroom at the start of each received packet
buffer for our transmit datapath headers.

Some devices have a very small number of internal buffers, and rely on
being able to pack multiple packets into each buffer. Using 2048-byte
buffers on such devices produces throughput of around 100Mbps. Using
a small number of much larger buffers (e.g. 32kB) increases the
throughput to around 780Mbps. (The full 1Gbps is not reached because
the high RTT induced by the use of multi-packet buffers causes us to
saturate our 256kB TCP window.)
Since allocation of large buffers is very likely to fail, allocate the
buffer set only once when the device is opened and recycle buffers
immediately after use. Received data is now always copied to
per-packet buffers.
If allocation of large buffers fails, fall back to allocating a larger
number of smaller buffers. This will give reduced performance, but
the device will at least still be functional.
Share code between the interrupt and bulk IN endpoint handlers, since
the buffer handling is now very similar.
