[PATCH] modemconf: default to grabbing the "Device" entry from the config file

Hi Andres,

actually modemconf is only for static devices inside embedded systems
like a mobile phone. The desktop should auto-discover modems via udev
and MBM is one of them that get auto-discovered nicely when having a
proper libudev in place.
