Rename DSL: deviceSpec => deviceAttachmentSpec

This language is used broadly to specify how to attach (and thus
also how to detach) devices to/from Salmanoff. The next bit of work
we'll do is split off the DSL parsing from the management of the
list of parsed binary attached spec objects.

We'll be creating a PipeDeviceAttachmentParser, and later on when
we support URDF, we'll create a URDFDeviceAttachmentParser.
