IIRC libusb-dev installs libusb*.so into /usr/lib/triplet while
libusb*.so.* reside in /lib/triplet. ldconfig therefore creates
libusb-0.1.so.4 -> libusb-0.1.so in /usr/lib/triplet which is not owned
by any package and may become a dangling link later on until ldconfig is
trigged again.

So let's ship a proper link in /usr/lib/triplet to keep this link in the
control of a package and not ldconfig.
