 Localization has caused some problems in Devices application. Details tab
 can include English "Device name" and value "unknown" and at the same time
 a localized "Device name" with some quite reasonable text.  I backed a
 little backward in localization and started to test, how those duplicate
 fields could be removed. I wrote a filter that work by some way. Still it
 is only a workaround, but could be used until someone have time to
 refactor the whole application.

 As you can see in the enclosed figure, the scsi/vendor + scsi/product
 could combined to better "Device name" than "unknown" or the localized
 "Unknown device" is now. In my filter I tried the same ide, but it does
 not work quite correct yet. At present "Manufacturer" and "Device name"
 are already combined in device tree on the left ("Intel
 Corporation"+"82372AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ACPI").

 In the figure you can also see, that V from Virtual is clipped (it is at
 the end of scsi/vendor). It is a bug before the localization, I think.

 Also, I enchanced code by adding handling of ACPI Battery (it is not quite
 complete but better than before). I added also DeviceUSB and DeviceSCSI
 code, but only USB code is compiled and is shown in ACPI only, I think.
