Switch userspace to use MTD access by default

Currently pflash defaults to using the MMIO interface through /dev/mem.
We want to disable /dev/mem in production systems in the near future, so
all non-debugging uses of it need to be eliminated.

The new version of pflash defaults to MTD access. It also brings some
API cleanups to libflash.

We recently moved flasher to use MTD. This updates skeleton to pull in
an update to flasher so that it can build against the new libflash API.

Build Status

Building

OpenBMC uses Yocto/Open-Embedded for a build system, which supports an out-of-tree build. It is recommended that you create an empty directory somewhere to hold the build. This directory will get big.

On Ubuntu 14.04 the following packages are required to build the default target

sudo apt-get install -y git build-essential libsdl1.2-dev texinfo gawk chrpath diffstat

On Fedora 23 the following packages are required to build the default target:

sudo dnf install -y git patch diffstat texinfo chrpath SDL-devel bitbake
sudo dnf groupinstall "C Development Tools and Libraries"

To start a build:

cd <builddir>
. <repodir>/openbmc-env
bitbake obmc-phosphor-image
