71b621775b vbox: remove USB (OHCI) pass-through support
The usage of the USBProxyDevice is no longer necessary because USB
pass-through is now supported by using the xHCI device model.

Issue #1863.

6a2aa903ca vbox: xHCI device model for USB pass-through
This device model enables USB2 and USB3 device passthrough support
for guests running in VirtualBox. It uses the qemu-usb library.

Fixes #1863.

ed52d5a211 Introduce 'spec' subdirectories to outline aspects
Instead of holding SPEC-variable dependent files and directories inline
within the repository structure, move them into 'spec' subdirectories
at the corresponding levels, e.g.:

  repos/base/include/spec
  repos/base/mk/spec
  repos/base/lib/mk/spec
  repos/base/src/core/spec
  ...

Moreover, this commit removes the 'platform' directories. That term was
used in an overloaded sense. All SPEC-relative 'platform' directories are
now named 'spec'. Other files, like for instance those related to the
kernel/architecture specific startup library, where moved from 'platform'
directories to explicit, more meaningful places like e.g.: 'src/lib/startup'.

Fix #1673

5be5191645 vbox: enable preliminary audio support
With this commit preliminary audio support in VirtualBox is enabled.
The backend supports playback as well as recording sounds from within
a guest VM. Depending on how the guest configures the device model
the audio output may sound disorted. If the guest uses buffers that
are too small, i.e., 10 ms or less, frequent buffer underruns will
occure.

To get this low-latency one has also to increase vbox' update hz
to 200 (i.e., 5ms).

Fixes #1647.

3a378bb970 libc_noux: remove dependency on 'platform_env.h'
Currently, libc_noux includes the 'base/src/base/env/platform_env.h' file
to be able to reinitialize the environment using the 'Platform_env'
interface. For base-linux, a special version of this file exists and the
inclusion of the generic version in libc_noux causes GCC 4.9 to make wrong
assumptions about the memory layout of the 'Env' object returned by
'Genode::env()'.

This commit moves the reinitialization functions to the 'Env' interface to
avoid the need to include the 'platform_env.h' file in libc_noux.

88034ef836 vbox: enable USB (OHCI) pass-through support
The information about connected devices is obtained from a ROM file named
'usb_devices', which is supposed to contain a device list as in the device
report generated by the USB driver (see issue #1506).

A policy for 'report_rom' would look like:

<policy label="vbox -> usb_devices" report="usb_drv -> devices"/>

If the 'usb_devices' ROM file is not available, a warning message gets
printed and VirtualBox continues without USB pass-through support.

The devices to be passed-through need to have a matching device filter in
the '.vbox' file. Example:

<USB>
    <DeviceFilters>
        <DeviceFilter name="USB Scanner" active="true" vendorId="04a9"
                      productId="2220" remote="0"/>
    </DeviceFilters>
</USB>

The feature was tested with HID devices (mouse, keyboard) and a flatbed
scanner. Mass storage devices didn't work correctly (they also didn't work
with VirtualBox on Linux without the closed-source extension pack).

It should be made sure that the USB driver does not try to control the
devices to be passed-through itself, for example, when passing-through
a HID device, the '<hid/>' config option should not be set.

ca971bbfd8 Move repositories to 'repos/' subdirectory
This patch changes the top-level directory layout as a preparatory
step for improving the tools for managing 3rd-party source codes.
The rationale is described in the issue referenced below.
