  • common/common-nut_version.c, include/common.h, drivers/libusb{0,1}.c, NEWS.adoc: introduce suggest_NDE_conflict()

Potential conflict between a driver program and NDE-wrapped service instances with NUT v2.8.x is a situation that is brought up a lot in troubleshooting and has Wiki pages dedicated to it. Speed up this loop by pointing end-users to the general idea and specific docs when it seems relevant.

NOTE: This PR focused on libusb faults, but the same sort of conflict might happen for other media types. Handling it there could be a matter of later PRs, once the code paths and other clues relevant to such failure mode are identified there.

@jimklimov jimklimov added this to the 2.8.4 milestone Aug 1, 2025
