usb: move config USB_USS720 to usb's misc Kconfig 

The USS720 parport driver source code is in drivers/usb/misc/, the
corresponding config is defined in drivers/usb/Kconfig. Some digging in the
kernel's history revealed no good reason why it needs to be defined in
USB's top-level Kconfig file, and why the config for the USS720 parport
driver should be the first in the list of USB port drivers, while all other
configs for drivers in drivers/usb/misc are in the USB Miscellaneous driver
configuration file.

Most probably, it was simply considered a bit more special when the USB
Miscellaneous driver configuration file (drivers/usb/misc/Config.in back
then) was initially created, and this config simply survived to remain at
the top-level USB Kconfig file with all further code/Kconfig
transformations and additions later on. Users rarely notice this config
being at this position, as CONFIG_PARPORT (Parallel port support) needs to
be enabled and only few users enable that. Nowadays, this USB_USS720 driver
is probably not that special that it needs to be listed as first item of
the USB port drivers.

Move the configuration of the USS720 parport driver to the top of the USB
Miscellaneous drivers section, as the configurations does not have a lot of
specific ordering USB Miscellaneous drivers. This way, the USS720 parport
driver is moved to the comment "USB Miscellaneous drivers", fitting to the
driver's source code location, but still is at the top of the list for
those few acquainted users of Kconfig UIs that might be looking for the
config that was once at the top of the list of the USB port drivers.

Put this config definition to a more local place. No semantic change.

This driver is for USB parallel port adapters that use the Lucent
Technologies USS-720 chip. These cables are plugged into your USB
port and provide USB compatibility to peripherals designed with
parallel port interfaces.
The chip has two modes: automatic mode and manual mode. In automatic
mode, it looks to the computer like a standard USB printer. Only
printers may be connected to the USS-720 in this mode. The generic
USB printer driver ("USB Printer support", above) may be used in
that mode, and you can say N here if you want to use the chip only
in this mode.
Manual mode is not limited to printers, any parallel port
device should work. This driver utilizes manual mode.
Note however that some operations are three orders of magnitude
slower than on a PCI/ISA Parallel Port, so timing critical
applications might not work.
Say Y here if you own an USS-720 USB->Parport cable and intend to
connect anything other than a printer to it.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called uss720.
