node-usb: LIBUSB_ERROR_ACCESS on OSX as admin user

interface[0].claim() is throwing this error.

I installed pkg-config and libusbx via: brew install libusbx pkgconfig.

libusbx-1.0.17 and pkg-config-0.28 were installed.

Please refer to this discussion, libusb-1.0.26 adds the support to detach kernel driver with correct entitlement (which is diffcult to get from Apple) but at least you can run as root.
