This patch puts the description of the different programmers into a
separate section of the manpage instead of having them one after the
other without visual structuring in the description of "-p". It is
made as a preparation of a man-page patch that adds the background
of board enables into flashrom.8 that would really blow up the OPTIONS
section.
The only differences in content are:
- The parameter for serprog is mandatory, not optional
- Default behaviour of it87spi (using BIOS-set I/O address) is mentioned.
- Default speed of buspiratespi is mentioned.

Please do not attempt to write/erase cards yet, unless you can recover!
In addition to the NVIDIA handling code it was required to call
programmer_shutdown() in a lot more places, otherwise the graphics card
will be disabled in the init function, but never enabled again as the
shutdown function is not called.
The shutdown handling may be changed to use atexit() later.

flashrom -p it87spi=port=0x820 and this looks horrible.

This allows for very easy pasting into the http://coreboot.org/flashrom

There are certainly possible improvements: The code has hard-coded
values for which interface of the ftdi chip to use (interface B was
chosen because libftdi seems to have trouble with A right now), what
clock rate use for the SPI interface (I've been running at 30Mhz, but
the patch sets it to 10Mhz), and possibly others. I think this means
that per-programmer options might be a good idea at some point.

If we find multiple ones, abort with a message to the user, suggesting
to use the
flashrom -p nic3com=bb:dd.f
syntax. If exactly one supported NIC is found, use it. If none is found,
abort with an error.
Print the bb:dd.f numbers for all supported NICs we find, so the user
doesn't have to poke around in lspci output to find the desired bb:dd.f.
Also, drop one pci_read_long() in favor of using the already existing
base_addr[0] struct field.
Drop the BAR in user messages, it's not really useful for us. Instead,
explain the BDF syntax a bit more verbosely.

I have tested this on actual hardware (see PCI IDs above) and all
operations worked fine.
Support for other 3COM cards will follow (I added some more which should
be supportable by this code, but they're untested so far), as well as
support for NICs from other vendors.
The patch also adds support for the Atmel AT49BV512 which is soldered
onto the 3COM NIC I used for testing.
