Now that C++17 introduced a special fallthrough keyword for
explicitly tagging switch cases that are supposed to fall
through, newer gcc versions also implement a feature request
from 2002 to warn about maybe unwanted fall-throughs in switch
cases in other languages (like C).
For C code, we can either add a gcc specific attribute at the
end of the switch case, or use a special comment that gcc checks
for, indicating that the fall-through behaviour is indeed
intended.
This patch adds a "/* fall-through */" comment at the end of
various case blocks to silence gcc warnings and in some cases
a break, where fall-through was probably not intended.

A common pattern in command line processing is having a usage()
function that prints out how to use the command line options and
then terminates.
The function is typically used inside a switch block for command
line options like `-h' or unknown options. In a lot of places, the
break keyword is omitted, because the function exits anyway. However,
this triggers gcc warnings about implicit fall-through.
Rather than adding a phony "/* fall-through */" this patch flags the
usage() style function with a gcc attribute, indicating that they do
not return and removes further superfluous break statements.

This patch eliminates warnings generated by the -Wmissing-prototypes
option. With this flag set, we are now forced to have prototypes for
all global, exported functions, that have to be made visible to the
definitions and we are forced to mark all local functions as static.

The kernel refuses to read more data from a MTD device than the device
size. However, mtd_debug does not check the amount of data read as
returned by read(2) and assumes the requested amount is always read when
there is no error. Reading 8M data from a 4M flash chip results in 8M
file containing the flash data at the start.

* There is no code modification in this commit, only moving
* the files to proper place.
The user tools looks a little messy as we place almost
the all tools in the root directory of mtd-utils. To make
it more clear, I propose to introduce the following structure
for our source code.
mtd-utils/
|-- lib
|-- include
|-- misc-utils
|-- jffsX-utils
|-- nand-utils
|-- nor-utils
|-- ubi-utils
|-- ubifs-utils
`-- tests
