devd: Improve devmatch support

We know that calling devmatch will be futile if there's no plug and play
information for it to match on. Avoid this generically when we see
	"? at +on"
which happens only when the location and pnpinfo aren't provided. Don't
call "service devmatch quietstart" here.

We also ignore ACPI devices with a _HID of none. These also will never
load a new driver, so avoid calling "service devmatch quietstart" here too.

Use the more compatct "$*" instead of "'?'$_" when calling "service
devmatch quietstart" since it will evaluate to the same thing.

On my laptop, this eliminates 45% of the calls to devmatch. While it
would be even better to integrate devmatch into devd (so we only parse
linker.hints once), that will have to wait for another day as it's a bit
more complex to arrange that avoiding easy to avoid calls.

# Implement the run-time component of devmatch by reacting to nomatch events.

# Example devd configuration file for automatically
# loading what modules we can based on nomatch
# events.
# Ignore those devices that can't possibly match. When there's neither a
# location, nor a pnpinfo string, we know that there's nothing devmatch can
# match on. When it's only a location, it'd debateable, but for nomatch
# events, we can't disambiguate between the two reliably.

# Ignore ACPI devices whose _HID is none. These cannot tell us what to load,
