one minor thing that came to my mind is that DEVTYPE and subsystem are
actually kinda coupled. So a DEVTYPE="host" has a different semantic for
USB than for Bluetooth subsystem for example. Not sure if we actually
care or just add a udev_device_get_parent_with_subsystem_devtype()
function to give applications a choice if they wanna care.
