Bug#824532: udev: Include udev rules for more U2F devices

Hi,

no we were not able to test all the different U2F devices before merging
them since we do not own most of them.
However, the way I see it, and feel free to disagree, is that adding an
entry in that udev rule (or an equivalent one) is a required step for any
device to work. The library itself may still be incompatible with a
specific device for different reasons, but I don't think that incorporating
a bigger list poses an issue.

That being said, if it helps we can make a new release of libu2f-host.

A.
