EEPROM support: handle implicit erase
Add support for EEPROMs with 1 byte granularity and implicit erase on write. flashrom will not try to erase before write on these chips. Explicitly requested erase with -E is done by writing 0xff. Corresponding to flashrom svn r1822. Signed-off-by: Carl-Daniel Hailfinger <c-d.hailfinger.devel.2006@gmx.net> Acked-by: Stefan Tauner <stefan.tauner@alumni.tuwien.ac.at>
