Upgrade to a more recent version.

There have been tons of changes in the usbhid-ups driver since  
nut-2.2.0 was released a little over two years ago. The older versions  
of this driver have serious performance issues (as well as bugs),  
which have been solved since.

See the NEWS file for nut-2.4.1.
