staging: speakup: check and convert dev name or ser to dev_t
This patch adds functionality to validate and convert either a device name or 'ser' memmber of synth into dev_t. Subsequent patch in this set will call it to convert user-specified device into device number. For device name, this patch does some basic sanity checks on the string passed in. It currently supports ttyS*, ttyUSB* and, for selected synths, lp*. The patch also introduces a string member variable named 'dev_name' to struct spk_synth. 'dev_name' represents the device name - ttyUSB0 etc - which needs conversion to dev_t.
