hidapi: use blacklist on libusb, linux and mac

Windows version of hidapi uses a blacklist to ignore device that behave badly. This patch make libusb, Linux and Mac version check the blacklist too.
Comment 1 Sam Lantinga 2020-12-10 23:45:29 UTC 
What's the motivation for this?

These are workarounds for bad Windows drivers. I haven't seen problems with these devices on Mac and Linux, have you?
Comment 2 Mathieu Eyraud 2020-12-11 09:28:09 UTC 
I haven't had problem with these devices. I just thought they had hardware bug.

If the blacklist is only for driver bug then you can ignore this patch.
Comment 3 Sam Lantinga 2020-12-13 03:26:40 UTC 
Yeah, I think these are just driver bugs.

Thanks!
