[PATCH] Policy update for PDA device files

Following from my previous hal-info patch for Palm handhelds, the
attached patches to hal-device-file.policy and 20-acl-management.fdi
enable active access through PolicyKit.

There's also a small correction to a comment in 20-acl-management.fdi

This is an attempt to push upstream work (by many) from:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=280251

We've numerous reports of this working successfully for users.

It currently matches only PalmOS PDAs; it could more broadly match all
PDA devices, though I have no experience of e.g. Windows Mobile devices.

Regards,

kev.
