community/android-tools: fix using adb with PINE64 PinePhone modem

Arnav Singh requested to merge Arnavion/aports:fix-16326 into master

adb v35 switched to using the libusb backend by default. With this it stopped being possible to use adb to connect to the PINE64 PinePhone's modem. That modem exposes itself as an adb-accessible device over USB but its device class is LIBUSB_CLASS_MISCELLANEOUS, which adb's libusb backend filters out by default since the code only allows LIBUSB_CLASS_PER_INTERFACE. The code does have a comment that the author wasn't sure just this device class is sufficient, and indeed it isn't.

This commit adds a patch to also allow devices with LIBUSB_CLASS_MISCELLANEOUS device class.

Fixes #16326 (closed)
