c23963d7a8 machine: qemu: add usb host passthrough
QEMU usb-host driver which is the one for passthrough, supports two
options for selecting an USB devices in the host to provide it to the
VM:
 - Bus and Device number the device is plugged
 - Vendor and Product information of the USB devices

    https://qemu-project.gitlab.io/qemu/system/devices/usb.html

This commit allows a user to configure podman machine with either of
options, with new --usb command line option for podman machine init.

Examples
  podman machine init tosovm4 --usb vendor=13d3,product=5406
  podman machine init tosovm3 --usb bus=1,devnum=4 --usb bus=1,devnum=3

This commit also allows a user to change the USBs configured with
--usb command line option for podman machine set.

Note that this commit does not handle host device permissions nor
verify that the USB devices exists.

94818f5941 podman machine: disable zincati update service
As explained in #21022, there are all kinds of downsides to a machine
updating itself (via zincati) automatically, like interuption of
service, lost mounts, etc.

disabling zincati will at least allow stop these downsides.  we are
likely to contemplate if podman will take over the update process
externally where interuption of services will not occur etc.

Fixes #20122

d4cfc498d7 Remove unnecessary use of the word "please".
Only use the word "please" in these situations:

- reader is asked to do something inconvenient
- reader is asked for permission
- reader is asked for forgiveness

Remove other uses of the word "please" to
make the language more efficient.

[NO NEW TESTS NEEDED]

fa654e9857 Use bytes size consistently instead of human size
Previously podman was using "MB" and "GB" (binary) for input but
"MB" and "GB" (decimal) for output, which was causing confusion.
