[BRLTTY] Regression Hedo MobiLine

Hi

With the latest BRLTTY from master, I am unable to use my Hedo MobiLine. It used
to work on Debian stable with 5.4.
Due to problems with the display, I had it repaired. During this time, I also
upgraded my system, ending up with BRLTTY 5.6 and as soon as I got the display
back, it didn't work anymore.
For debugging, I compiled versions 5.5 and 5.4 and the display only works with
5.4. However, it seems as if Hedo changed something with the protocol, because
the display does not react to key presses and the first two characters of the
display show useless signs. This makes me believe that there is both a
regression in BRLTTY and a protocol change on the manufacturer's side.

I've attached the output of `lsusb` below, please let me know what else I could
provide to help resolving this.

Thanks
Sebastian
