[LinuxBIOS] Flashrom move into global util/ directory

Hi all,
please note that we're planning to create a new top-level directory
'util' in svn where independant utilities (which are not tied to a
certain LinuxBIOS version) will reside.
One of these utilities will be flashrom, but others will follow.
The new repository layout will look like this:
- trunk
- LinuxBIOSv1
- LinuxBIOSv2
- LinuxBIOSv3 (later)
- util
- flashrom
- ...
The current trunk/LinuxBIOSv2/util/flashrom will be moved into
trunk/util per 'svn mv', so the history will remain intact.
trunk/LinuxBIOSv2/util/flashrom will then become a svn:externals entry,
that is, it will still _look_ like it's in the LinuxBIOSv2 tree, but
it'll actually be checked out from trunk/util/flashrom.
LinuxBIOSv3 will probably also "get" flashrom via svn:externals into
the util/flashrom directory.
The transition should be painless (a simple 'svn up' should do), but
just in case there are problems, please make sure you save all pending
flashrom patches/modifications you may have. If there are problems
please let us know (try a fresh checkout before, though).
If nobody objects, I'll perform the required actions later this day or
tomorrow.
Thanks, Uwe.
