This is useful, if the DUT is a USB device, where you are not yet sure, what exactly it is. This allows the test to use the wrapper to communicate with the device, even if it is on the network. Might also be useful, if you don't yet have a driver for a USB controlled device and want to test it out before upstreaming it. Signed-off-by: Fabian Pflug <fabian.pflug@grandcentrix.net>

Description
This is useful, if the DUT is a USB device, where you are not yet sure, what exactly it is. This allows the test to use the wrapper to communicate with the device, even if it is on the network.
Might also be useful, if you don't yet have a driver for a USB controlled device and want to test it out before upstreaming it.
Checklist
Not sure about the description in usage and development, but I'm currently using it in my labgrid to communicate with a USB device, that has not yet a driver in Labgrid and where I have not yet come around to upstream the driver, because it is a lot of work to make it work reliable.
Have not written any tests, because I think the USB-Port is already tested enough.
