Bug Description

[ Impact ]

 * Upstream commit:
   https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libfprint/libfprint/-/commit/eaec2339ccaee64b2bdb1d1e27f51ada673e4087

 * Add new Broadcom device IDs in order to reduce the power consumption
   on the target machine.

 * It might consume more power if the IDs are not in the list.

[ Test Plan ]

 * Install package on laptop with either IDs list below, and check USB_DEVICE/power/control
   is auto or on.

 * usb:v0A5Cp5860*
   usb:v0A5Cp5863*
   usb:v0A5Cp5864*
   usb:v0A5Cp5865*
   usb:v0A5Cp5866*
   usb:v0A5Cp5867*

[ Where problems could occur ]

 * Should be low because these IDs only affect on the machine with those Broadcom devices and it
   improves the power consumption.
