CONFIG_BITBANG_SPI was not selected if CONFIG_NICINTEL_SPI was on by default. Wiki output was missing all flash chips if CONFIG_INTERNAL was not selected. Use correct type for toupper()/tolower()/isspace() functions. Specify software requirements in a generic way. Non-x86 compilation does not work with the default programmer set, so list the make parameters which result in a working build. Corresponding to flashrom svn r1203.
