This patch adds the much requested libusb_strerror() function, taking into account all issues people raised wrt previous attempts. Criteria / Decisions underlying this implementation: - Must support translated messages - Must not use gettext as that does not work well in combination with Windows (when building with Visual C, or for Windows CE) - API compatible with FreeBSD and various patched libusb-s floating around - KISS: - Do not add any (other) library dependencies - Do not try to deal with message encodings (iconv), simply always return UTF-8 making encoding the problem of the application using libusb_strerror. - Defaults to English, so apps which don't want translated messages, don't need to do anything special - Defaults to English (with pure ASCII messages), so apps which don't call libusb_setlocale() don't need to worry about encoding
