Flashrom does not honor argument ordering for operations

Not only does this violate the principle of least surprise, it also caused one
bug where -Ewv was specified and the flash ended up being empty. Support only
one operation at a time. As a side benefit, this allows us to clean up main()
quite a bit.

Corresponding to flashrom svn r585.

-If no file is specified, then all that happens
+You can specify one of -E, -r, -w, -v or no operation.
+If no operation is specified, then all that happens
 is that flash info is dumped and the flash chip is set to writable.
