We can no longer use bash veriable string code vor string manipulation. Move to
a more robust "cut" implementation.

Turns out we still need it, else a MC7710 card won't work on an APU4 device.
This reverts commit f9e0fb6bffd41c143ff5454c3b73cca4a588ca86.

During testing it was discovered that on 5 out of 10 reboots the USB
enumeration/mapping from physical port to /dev/ttyUSB is different. The root
cause is that it's a FIFO so first found/loaded driver module will be assigned
ttyUSB0.
This mixed up the serial interfaces of my FTDI chips and my connected Sierra
Wireless MC7710 card which was no longer functioning as it now was mapped to
a different USB interface.
The solution is a udev rule which persistently maps the USB-tree-device to a
device file in /dev. Wait? isn't this what /dev/serial/by-{id,path} is for?
Correct, it does the very same thing but the problem is as follows:
* by-path uses device file names which also incorporate the parent bus system,
this results in "pci-0000:00:10.0-usb-0:2.4:1.0-port0"
* by-id will overwrite the assigned device symlink if a new USB device with the
same name appears. This happens to some FTDI devices with no serial number
programmed so the device added last wins and will be the only one in
the by-id folder - cruel world!
This commit adds a new directory /dev/serial/by-bus which holds the following
device files (as example):
$ ls -1 /dev/serial/by-bus/
usb0b1.3p1.0
usb0b1.3p1.2
usb0b1.3p1.3
usb0b2.4p1.0
usb0b2.4p1.1
usb0b2.4p1.2
usb0b2.4p1.3
