pyusb 1.1.0 does not work on newer Python versions.
For example, with Python 3.10 and Cat B35, I got the following:
am@Host-002:~/github/edl$ python edl.py -loader 0x000940e100000000.mbn -printgpt
Qualcomm Sahara / Firehose Client (c) B.Kerler 2018-2019.
Using loader 0x000940e100000000.mbn ...

Since the merge of plugnburn#1 this project no longer works on Cat B35. This commit adds a '-non-standard-responses' option, false by default (restores the behavior before the PR). KaiOS Nokias / Alcatel Cingular Flip should still work by toggling '-non-standard-responses'

The firts commit updates pyusb to version 1.2.1 in order to support newer Python versions (tested with Python 3.10)
The second commit fixes a regression from #1 for Cat B35. KaiOS Nokias / Alcatel Cingular Flip should still work by toggling '-non-standard-responses'
For the record, this is what I get with the first commit and without the second:
