usb: Document the missing -usbdevice options 

There are some more -usbdevice options that have never been mentioned
in the documentation. Now that we removed -usbdevice from the list
of deprecated features again, we should document them properly.

While we're at it, also sort them alphabetically.

``-usbdevice devname``
Add the USB device devname. Note that this option is deprecated,
please use ``-device usb-...`` instead. See the chapter about
Add the USB device devname, and enable an on-board USB controller
if possible and necessary (just like it can be done via
``-machine usb=on``). Note that this option is mainly intended for
the user's convenience only. More fine-grained control can be
achieved by selecting a USB host controller (if necessary) and the
desired USB device via the ``-device`` option instead. For example,
instead of using ``-usbdevice mouse`` it is possible to use
``-device qemu-xhci -device usb-mouse`` to connect the USB mouse
to a USB 3.0 controller instead (at least on machines that support
PCI and do not have an USB controller enabled by default yet).
For more details, see the chapter about
:ref:`Connecting USB devices` in the System Emulation Users Guide.
Possible devices for devname are:
``braille``
Braille device. This will use BrlAPI to display the braille
output on a real or fake device (i.e. it also creates a
corresponding ``braille`` chardev automatically beside the
``usb-braille`` USB device).
``ccid``
Smartcard reader device
``keyboard``
Standard USB keyboard. Will override the PS/2 keyboard (if present).
``mouse``
