Adds 06cb:0088 to the project intro and the device status table. A fully working FLOSS libfprint driver for this device lives at https://github.com/visorcraft/Kensington_VeriMark_06cb-0088 and covers enroll, verify, and PAM/login integration. Closes nmikhailov#46.

Summary
06cb:0088to the project intro line and the device status table.libfprintdriver for this device.Context
06cb:0088is the Kensington VeriMark Gen 1 USB-A fingerprint key (Synaptics pre-Prometheus chip). It was originally flagged in #46 (open since 2018) but never got a working driver in this project. A clean-roomlibfprintdriver for it now lives at:https://github.com/visorcraft/Kensington_VeriMark_06cb-0088
The driver covers enroll, verify, and PAM/login integration end-to-end on Linux. It auto-pairs with the device on first plug-in (no Windows extraction required) and persists pairing material to the standard libfprint state directory.
Protocol-wise,
06cb:0088is pre-Prometheus — it doesn't have the fwext partition the06cb:009a-style chips load, and its pre-TLS pairing exchange differs from what's documented inspec.md. It's effectively a distinct device family that fits under this project's umbrella.This change is intentionally docs-only: there's no useful place to vendor the driver into this repo (the in-tree
libfprint/subdir is marked "Not ready" in the README), so the table just links out to the maintained driver repo.Test plan
Closes #46.
