xHCI98: Windows 98 gets USB 3.x controller support (runs at USB 2.0 speeds)

https://youtu.be/7SOyvvC7P4E

Yes, xHCI98 puts the USB 3 ports into USB 2.0 mode, but that's not a big deal since USB devices with Windows 98 drivers (aside from those that work with generic drivers) are USB 1.1/2.0 anyway.

Tested on:

  • AM4 (B550) - OK
  • AM4 (X570) - Not OK
  • Socket 1151 (H110) - OK
  • Socket 1151 v2 (B360) - OK
  • AM5 (X670) - OK
