usb: Make USB persist default configurable

Commit 9214d1d8 set the USB persist flag as a default for all devices.
This might be desirable for some distributions, but it certainly has its
trade-offs... most importantly, it can significantly increase system
resume time, because the kernel blocks on resuming (and sometimes
resetting) USB devices before it unfreezes userspace.

This patch introduces a new config option CONFIG_USB_DEFAULT_PERSIST,
which allows distributions to make this decision on their own without
the need to carry a custom patch or revert the kernel's setting in
userspace.

Say N here if you don't want USB power session persistance
enabled by default. If you say N it will make suspended USB
devices that lose power get reenumerated as if they had been
unplugged, causing any mounted filesystems to be lost. The
persist feature can still be enabled for individual devices
through the power/persist sysfs node. See
Documentation/usb/persist.txt for more info.
If you have any questions about this, say Y here, only say N
if you know exactly what you are doing.
