The --skip-bad-blocks-to-start option will increase the start address by
the size of each bad block encountered between the start of the partition
and the specified start address.
This can be useful if other readers of the partition will be reading using
a simple bad-block-skipping algorithm.

When a program does sophisticated enough command line processing
(i.e. getopt), make sure it responds to -V and --version.
When a program prints a version string, make sure it uses the
common_print_version macro to print out its name, that it is part
of mtd-utils and the mtd-utils version from the build system in a
fashion similar to common program packages like the GNU coreutils.
When a program responds to -V/--version or -h/--help, make sure it
reports success exit status.

Errors may happen, it's e.g. easy on embedded devices to run out of space
when dumping big partitions. This patch adds a helper function for
writing. It deals with partial writes and just returns 0 on success or
error number.
The old code didn't check for errors at all which could result in
incomplete dumps without exiting with an error.

nanddump was always writing a whole page of data into the output
discarding the length actually requested. This patch allows to
write only the remaining length if oob is omitted. In case oob
is needed, it makes sense to copy the entire page.

* 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
