Fixed-width integer type aliases are leaked from USBAPI.h #510

Description

@inicula

It seems inappropriate that u8, u16, and u32 are leaked from USBAPI.h, which in turn is included in Arduino.h, and thus polluting the global namespace:

typedef unsigned char u8;
typedef unsigned short u16;
typedef unsigned long u32;

If you try to define u16 yourself as using u16 = uint16_t; while including Arduino.h, you'll get a compilation error because this alias conflicts with the one from USBAPI.h.

Is this behavior intended?
