child_added/child_removed join the device-manager protocol. The driver
maps its register BAR (resource 0 is the ECAM config space; the walk
starts at 1), reads CAPLENGTH and HCSPARAMS1, and reads one PORTSC per
port: the connect bit and speed class come straight from hardware, no
rings needed to see the devices. The manager mirrors reported children
keyed by (parent, port), remembers which instance reported each, and
prunes a dead reporter's children before deciding the restart — the
children describe protocol state that died with the process. The
usb-report scenario drives the whole loop: two QEMU devices reported,
reporter killed, children pruned, driver respawned with backoff, and the
new instance re-claims, re-scans, and re-reports.
