[coreboot] Add support for SPI-Chips on ICH9 to flash rom / please delete the last mail

[Carl-Daniel Hailfinger]

Hi Claus,

flashrom spi.c has been greatly restructured in the last few commits and
all IT87 specific routines have been moved to it87spi.c and useful
#defines have been moved to spi.h.
I hope spi.c is now a lot more clear and understandable. Can you check?
AFAICS we can reduce the amount of code in ichspi.c by ~50% or more if
we use the generic functions from spi.c.

I also merged some of your changes in flash.h (albeit at a different
place) and added dozens of ATMEL flash chip IDs to flash.h.
