USB: Export suspend statistics

This patch exports two statistics to userspace:
/sys/bus/usb/device/.../power/connected_duration
/sys/bus/usb/device/.../power/active_duration

connected_duration is the total time (in msec) that the device has
been connected.  active_duration is the total time the device has not
been suspended.  With these two statistics, tools like PowerTOP can
calculate the percentage time that a device is active, i.e. not
suspended or auto-suspended.

Users can also use the active_duration to check if a device is actually
autosuspended.  Currently, they can set power/level to auto and
power/autosuspend to a positive timeout, but there's no way to know from
userspace if a device was actually autosuspended without looking at the
dmesg output.  These statistics will be useful in creating an automated
userspace script to test autosuspend for USB devices.
