[avrdude-dev] New programmer support

[Dmitriy Kanareykin]

Hello Avrdude-dev,

Hi! I'm new to this list and tried searching the archive and did
not found the similar question.

Is it possible to add support of this Chinese parallel programmer?
https://world.taobao.com/item/37457413205.htm?fromSite=main&spm=a312a.7700824.w4024-9569747122.4.HGILav&scene=taobao_shop

(sold by shop https://mengzhenyao.world.taobao.com/ - added for the
possible future searches).

This is parallel high voltage (with onboard 5-12 converter) programmer
on atmega168 which uses proprietary Chinese software. The programmer
is identified by Windows as usbasp (uses the same driver library):

USB\VID_16C0&PID_05DC&REV_0100

but avrdude does not see it saying:

> avrdude.exe: error: could not find USB device with vid=0x16c0 pid=0x5dc 
> vendor='www.fischl.de' product='USBasp'

The programmer itself seems to be good-built and has affordable price,
so it would be very nice to see its support in this great utility.

Thank you.
