create_usbhid.sh: update english product string
Current product string value for english locale is configured as
"virtual_input". Updated string value to "Virtual Keyboard and Mouse"
for better readability.
Tested:
1. Verified using AST2600EVB + Ubuntu server 20.04 as BMC host os
2. Launch KVM and execute following command inside host
> sudo evtest /dev/input/event3 | head
3. Observe the "Input device name" field in the command output
Before changes:
Input driver version is 1.0.1
Input device ID: bus 0x3 vendor 0x1d6b product 0x104 version 0x101
Input device name: "OpenBMC virtual_input"
Supported events:
Event type 0 (EV_SYN)
Event type 1 (EV_KEY)
Event code 1 (KEY_ESC)
Event code 2 (KEY_1)
Event code 3 (KEY_2)
Event code 4 (KEY_3)

The obmc-ikvm application is a VNC server that provides access to the host graphics output. The application interfaces with the video device on the BMC that captures the host graphics, and then serves that video data on the RFB (remote framebuffer, also known as VNC) protocol. The application also interfaces with the BMC USB gadget device to pass HID events from the BMC to the host, allowing the user to interact with the host system.
Once the host is running and an appropriate HID gadget device is instantiated on the BMC, the application can be started with the following command: obmc-ikvm -v <video device path> -i <HID gadget device path>
For example:
obmc-ikvm -v /dev/video0 -i /dev/hidg0
