Core: Introduce LIBUSBX_API_VERSION macro

* This macro can be used to detect if the version of libusbx being
  compiled against has a specific API feature, as well as to detect
  whether compilation occurs against libusb or libusbx.

+/** \def LIBUSBX_API_VERSION
+ * \ingroup misc
+ * libusbx's API version.
+ *
+ * Since version 1.0.13, to help with feature detection, libusbx defines
+ * a LIBUSBX_API_VERSION macro that gets increased every time there is a
+ * significant change to the API, such as the introduction of a new call,
+ * the definition of a new macro/enum member, or any other element that
+ * libusbx applications may want to detect at compilation time.
+ *
+ * The macro is typically used in an application as follows:
+ * #if defined(LIBUSBX_API_VERSION) && (LIBUSBX_API_VERSION >= 0x01001234)
+ * // Use one of the newer features from the libusbx API
+ * #endif
+ *
+ * Another feature of LIBUSBX_API_VERSION is that it can be used to detect
+ * whether you are compiling against the libusb or the libusbx library.
+ *
+ * Internally, LIBUSBX_API_VERSION is defined as follows:
+ * (libusbx major << 24) | (libusbx minor << 16) | (16 bit incremental)
