Subject: [PATCH] Add Arduino driver ttyACM + generic rxtxcomm as device

 candidates.

The Arduino ttyACM is documented as a possible device in the source.

Without the patch, rxtx does not work with Arduino devices

The source contains a "Linux-alltargets" configuration target which

contains this and some other less used devices. It could be argued

that this could be used nowadays, since the original reason not to use

it was the very large number of /dev/* nodes before udev reduced this

to something more sane. However, the status of this code is generally

questionable, at least some device names are probably out of date.

Instead the patch also adds a /dev/rxtxcomm* device. There is no driver

using this, but it can be used as a udev link for any device not

otherwise supported.
