usbguard forgets temporarily allowed devices if they are unplugged and plugged again. #609

I temporarily allowed a USB microphone that is not allowed in rules.

However, the USB port malfunctioned and dropped momentarily before coming back.

Thus, my USB microphone was unplugged and plugged again.

usbguard didn't remember the fact that it was allowed temporarily by me.

Thus, people didn't hear my voice until I realized that usbguard blocked it again.

Perhaps, can I allow a device until usbguard is shut down? I would also want to block it again after I'm done using it.
