a8da224c63 Allow specifying CPPFLAGS
The user may know better which CFLAGS/CPPFLAGS are appropriate.
Use flashrom_CFLAGS for flags which flashrom definitely needs to build.

Thanks to Stefan Tauner for pointing out the flaw in r1574.

Corresponding to flashrom svn r1575.

b7bce8a6cf Allow the user to specify CFLAGS without breaking the build
GNU make has a very interesting quirk: If you set a variable on the
command line, any changes to that variable in the Makefile are ignored
unless marked with the "override" keyword.

Use CFLAGS only for optimization and warning options, and use CPPFLAGS
for the dependency and other preprocessor related options.
That way packagers can specify their own CFLAGS without breaking the
build.

As a side benefit, the ich_descriptors_tool Makefile now behaves exactly
the same whether called standalone or as part of the main Makefile.

60d9bd267e Portability fixes and cleanups
Move Mac OS X IOKit/DirectHW availability checks in the Makefile from
compiler check to pciutils check.

Print the compiler error messages for feature detection.

Add DOS libpci in the Makefile includes only if a PCI-based programmer
was requested.

Restrict mmap usage in ich_descriptors_tool to Unix style systems.

Build ich_descriptors_tool with the correct .exe extension on
DOS/Windows.

Build ich_descriptors_tool by default on x86. (Patch by Stefan Tauner)

Print the Windows version instead of "unknown machine" on Windows.

Don't #define our own __DARWIN__, use the standard OS X detection
method.

Update the README.

Add more generated files to svn:ignore

b3850964f6 Add ich_descriptor_tool to decode all flash descriptors stored in a flash dump file
This patch adds an external utility that shares most of the existing descriptor
decoding source code. Additionally to what is available via FDOC/FDOD this
allows to access:
 - the softstraps which are used to configure the chipset by flash content
   without the need for BIOS routines. on ICH8 it is possible to read those
   with FDOC/FDOC too, but this was removed in later chipsets.
 - the ME VSCC (Vendor Specific Component Capabilities) table. simply put,
   this is an SPI chip database used to figure out the flash's capabilities.
 - the MAC address stored in the GbE image.

Intel thinks this information should be confidential for ICH9 and up, but
references some tidbits in their public documentation.
This patch includes the human-readable information for ICH8, Ibex Peak
(5 series) and Cougar Point (6 series); the latter two were obtained from
leaked "SPI Flash Programming Guides" found by google. Data regarding ICH9
and 10 is unknown to us yet. It can probably found in:
"Intel® ICH7, ICH8, ICH9 and ICH10 — SPI Family Flash Programming Guide"
Information regarding the upcoming Panther Point chipset is also not included.
