Introduce new "no_guest_reset" parameter for usb-host device

With certain USB devices passed through via usb-host, a guest attempting to
reset a usb-host device can trigger a reset loop that renders the USB device
unusable. In my use case, the device was an iPhone XR that was passed through to
a Mac OS X Mojave guest. Upon connecting the device, the following happens:

1) Guest recognizes new device, sends reset to emulated USB host
2) QEMU's USB host sends reset to host kernel
3) Host kernel resets device
4) After reset, host kernel determines that some part of the device descriptor
has changed ("device firmware changed" in dmesg), so host kernel decides to
re-enumerate the device.
5) Re-enumeration causes QEMU to disconnect and reconnect the device in the
guest.
6) goto 1)

Here's from the host kernel (note the "device firmware changed" lines")

Here's from QEMU:

libusb: error [_get_usbfs_fd] libusb couldn't open USB device /dev/bus/usb/005/026: No such file or directory

The result of this is that the device remains permanently unusable in the guest.
The same problem has been previously reported for an iPad:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52617634/how-do-i-get-qemu-usb-passthrough-to-work-for-ipad-iphone

This problem can be elegantly solved by interrupting step 2) above. Instead of
passing through the reset, QEMU simply ignores it. To allow this to be
configured on a per-device level,  a new parameter "no_guest_reset" is
introduced for the usb-host device. I can confirm that the configuration
described above (iPhone XS + Mojave guest) works flawlessly with
no_guest_reset=True specified.

Working command line for my scenario:
device_add usb-host,vendorid=0x05ac,productid=0x12a8,no_guest_reset=True,id=iphone

Best regards
Alexander
