USB OTG status #23

So far on-clip WiFi is not working, a WiFi dongle on USB OTG could allow application developers to go on without waiting.

USB OTG does not seem working too :( But it should be less dependent on (not-yet-released) vendor proprietary blobs and easier to implement

At the moment, the kernel patches for USB have not yet been added to this repo. You can however try and either use the development kernel tree instead of the vanilla Kernel from here: https://github.com/arm000/linux-bl808/tree/linux-next/mboxic or extraxt the patches yourself from the same repo. I'm not 100% sure about the state of the USB driver, but there has been some effort and some have already shown it working.

I've got this branch which provides some level of USB host support, but some devices don't work per this bug from the official SDK.

Have a dongle arriving today will see if it works for me.
