Add atapromise programmer

Browse Source 
Supported controllers are Promise PDC20262 (FastTrak66/Ultra66),
PDC20265 (FastTrak100 Lite/Ultra100), PDC20267 (FastTrak100/Ultra100).
At least the Ultra100 only has address lines A0-A14 wired up, limiting
addressable chip size to 32 kB. The flash chips mounted on those
controllers usually is 128 kB, i.e. parts of the flash chip are
inaccessible. As a workaround, the driver implicitly truncates the
size of all flash chips to 32 kB. Works well for the factory installed
flash.
Do NOT use as a generic programmer for chips >32 kB.

Corresponding to flashrom svn r1916.

This programmer is currently limited to 32 kB, regardless of the actual size of the flash chip. This stems
from the fact that, on the tested device (a Promise Ultra100), not all of the chip's address lines were
actually connected. You may use this programmer to flash firmware updates, since these are only 16 kB in
size (padding to 32 kB is required).
