Use size_t instead of uint32_t when specifying file sizes. Update all
consumers up through the layers to use size_t when required. These
changes should be safe, but the higher-levels will need to be updated
further to receive the intended benefits (i.e. large file support).
Add error checking for fileio_read and file_write. Previously, all
errors were being silently ignored, so this change might cause some
problems for some people in some cases. However, it gives us the chance
to handle any errors that do occur at higher-levels, rather than burying
our heads in the sand.
Add the 'nand verify' command to perform a dump and fake-write
simultaneously, checking the read bits against those generated by the
write process. Appropriate user documentation for this command has
been added to the user guide as well.
The algorithm presently makes a relatively naive comparison. Some chips
that use ECC may not verify correctly using this implementation, but the
new documentation provides details about this limitation.
This patch eliminates duplicated code in the the NAND 'dump' and 'write'
by using the new static helper functions.
These changes also fix a possible memory leak in nand dump command, in
the case that the dump file failed to open.
Overall, the changes should be functionally equivalent, but the
resulting code will be easier to improve and extend further.
This patch provides helpers APIs that will eliminate duplicated code in
the the NAND 'dump' and 'write' commands by factoring their common code
into static helper functions. These helpers may be useful for creating
new commands, as shown in the final patch to 'verify' flash from a file.
Several previously unreported error conditions now generate messages and
propogate the return codes, such as when the file fails to open and bad
arguments are given. These changes will fix a possible memory leak in
nand dump command, in the case that the dump file failed to open.
Overall, the changes should be functionally equivalent, but the
resulting code will be easier to improve and extend consistently.
Don't include "target.h" from more headers than necessary. This
avoids needless interdependencies and duplicated include paths.
Don't needlessly include it in source files, either.

Lots of files still include it, often through needless
duplicate inclusion of "log.h"; sigh.
This cleans up the inclusion graph a bunch, so there are
fewer inclusion paths, but it doesn't change much otherwise.

Most files in the tree seem to have ended up including this,
and *quite* needlessly ... only code implementing or using
downloadable algorithms actually needs these declarations.
So take it out of the header files which included it, and put
it in files which use it ... reduce needless interdependencies.
Also: "algorithm.h" doesn't need to include "types.h" again;
it already comes from a different header.

Remove the last external user of arm7_9_get_arch_pointers(), and
that annoying downcast utility. Add an is_arm7_9() predicate.
Stop returning specious success codes on various failure paths
in the ARM7/ARM9 commands which used that downcast utility.
