hidapi can be used with libusb, or the kernel driver "hidraw" (likely only relevant for rooted devices), to access HID devices. Goal is to patch it further and use it together with termux-usb.

Add it now for testing and development purposes.

AFAIK HID-devices are blocklisted in USB api code in Android framework so they can not be used with termux-usb. The package should be in root repo.
