extras/modem-modeswitch: Add Huawei E1550 GSM modem
What's odd is that this is a huawei modem, not an option modem, so one would
expect it to work better with usb_modeswitch and it's -H (huawei) mode - but
that's not the case, I've tested that as well.

modem-modeswitch: add a device
---------------------
modem-modeswitch only supports *Option* devices, not ZTE or Huawei
devices. I've had a request from a Huawei engineer (Franko Fang) to
remove the rule for their device. It doesn't matter if the device
appears to work correctly; it's completely the wrong place for eject of
non-Option devices and completely the wrong command sent to the device
if it's not manufactured by Option NV.
All further modem eject stuff should really handled by usb_modeswitch,
not by modem-modeswitch. I'll follow up with a patch for the rules file
saying that only Option devices should be added, and that usb_modeswitch
is really the right place for this stuff.
Thanks!
Dan
