PCI: rename DECLARE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE to DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE

a) DECLARE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE is misnamed.  It is used to *define* tables,
   not to declare them.  It should be called DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE.

b) It's lame, anyway.  We could implement any number of such helper
   thingies, but we choose not to.

So I wouldn't go adding code which uses this thing until it has a correct
name, and until we've decided that we actually want to live with it.
