Subject: [PATCH] Change USB device prefix to 'usbmon'

Ethernet USB devices (supported by the usbnet driver in Linux) are
by default named 'usbX', which is also what libpcap uses for its
usbmon pseudo-interfaces.  To avoid this namespace conflict, change
libpcap's USB interface prefix to 'usbmon'.

Checked in and pushed to the main repository.
