In this PR, I add a package with the udev rules for probe-rs, a tool for controlling USB debug probes from various vendors. Website: https://probe.rs

Since an old version of these rules was actually already present in nixpkgs (unbeknownst to me when I started) under the name picoprobe-udev-rules, I decided to remove that and add a 'rename' alias so that any current users of the Pico are not broken.
I'm not ultimately sure if this was the right thing to do, but it seemed better than having two packages with the same contents, or one with the wrong name.

cc. @MGlolenstine I don't know if you have thoughts on this or would want to be a maintainer of the package still? Since now it is no longer just aimed as specific to the Pico, it might be broader than what you intended to support as a package maintainer.
I am happy to do either way.

Hi,

I'm glad to hear that this package is being updated or improved, it was just a quick hack from my side, so I'm really glad it got an overhaul.

I sadly haven't had much time for updating my packages and maintaining them, so I'm glad there's now a nice alternative.
