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.

The --skip-bad-blocks-to-start option will increase the seek offset by the
size of each bad block encountered between the start of the partition and
the specified start address.
This can be useful when writing part way through a partition that will be
read using a simple bad-block-skipping algorithm.

JFFS2 supports clustering erase blocks to virtual erase blocks.
nandwrite supports this, but previously mixed up virtual and
physical erase block numbers when checking for bad blocks.
This patch adds a function for checking if a virtual erase block
is bad and replaces the broken mtd_is_bad loop.

This patch makes sure that a virtual erase block is always
composed of a postivie number of erase blocks (i.e. 1 or more)
and enforces the block alignment to be a power of two as
suggested by the help text and assumed throughout the program.

Pull the buffer content checking code into separate function and
simplify the code invoking it slightly.

Several tools are simply not checking return code of functions marked
with 'warn_unused_result'.
Provide wrappers for the read/write functions to avoid patching old
code and providing proper error handling.
Fix the remaining ones (calls to fgets() and system()).

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.

Add automake files for the test binaries. If configured to do so,
install the test binaries to libexec/mtd-utils and use autoconf to
fix the paths in the test scripts.

This patch is largely based on Richards original RFC.
The major differences to the RFC patch are:
- Add missing sumtools & mtdpart targets
- Fix name of mkfs.jffs2 target
- Add missing subdir-objects option for non-recursive make
- Move all automake options to configure.ac
- Add manpages to install target
- Make XATTR & LZO support configurable
- Install binaries to sbin directory like in the old build system
- Install flash_erase wrapper script
- Add files missing from distribution target

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
