[PATCH] ignore uhid devices in X devd backend

This patch removes uhid from the hw_types[] list. According to the
uhid driver description, this driver is only a fallback for devices
not supported by any other driver.

On my system, the USB keyboard shows up as an uhid device in addition
to /dev/ukbd0, but the previous devd code misidentified it as a mouse.

This just leads to trouble when X attempts to open() it and fails,
for the reasons described in my earlier devd_no_kbd.diff patch.
