The purpose of this code seems to be to avoid issues caused
by partially overwriting an existing UBI partition, where some
of the erase counters would be reset but not the unmodified
ones. This problem has been solved in a more generic way by
the UBI EOF marker. This ensures that any old PEBs after the
marker are properly initialized. It is therefore unnecessary
to erase the whole partition before flashing a new OpenWrt
factory image.

This replaces the internal device names "Audi" and "Viper" with the
real model names, which a user would look for. This makes the
Linksys devices on this target consistent with the names recently
changed for mvebu based on the same idea.
As a consequence, the "viper" device definition is split into two
separate definitions with the correct names for both real models.

Consistently handle boot-count reset and upgrade across
ipq40xx, ipq806x, kirkwood, mvebu
Dual-firmware devices often utilize a specific MTD partition
to record the number of times the boot loader has initiated boot.
Most of these devices are NAND, typically with a 2k erase size.
When this code was ported to the ipq40xx platform, the device in hand
used NOR for this partition, with a 16-byte "record" size. As the
implementation of `mtd resetbc` is by-platform, the hard-coded nature
of this change prevented proper operation of a NAND-based device.
* Unified the "NOR" variant with the rest of the Linksys variants
* Added logging to indicate success and failure
* Provided a meaningful return value for scripting
* "Protected" the use of `mtd resetbc` in start-up scripts so that
failure does not end the boot sequence
* Moved Linksys-specific actions into common `/etc/init.d/bootcount`
For upgrade, these devices need to determine which partition to flash,
as well as set certain U-Boot envirnment variables to change the next
boot to the newly flashed version.
* Moved upgrade-related environment changes out of bootcount
* Combined multiple flashes of environment into single one
* Current-partition detection now handles absence of `boot_part`

The platform_check_image() stub need to return 0 for success, otherwise

Append and enforce image metadata. Remove the device specific image
checks, they are replaced by image metadata.

Depending on busybox applet selection, paths of basic utiilties may differ,
and may not work as symlinks to busybox. Simply using whatever binary is
found in PATH and detecting symlinks automatically is more robust and
easier to maintain.
The list of binaries is also slightly cleaned up and duplicates are
removed.

The new image requires `bootz` because of devicetree appending.
To flash a new image boot initramfs:
tftpboot 0x800000 openwrt-kirkwood-dockstar-initramfs-kernel.bin
bootz 0x800000
# detach if already attached
ubidetach -p /dev/$(grep ubi /proc/mtd|awk -F: '{print $1}')
# scp openwrt-kirkwood-dockstar-squashfs-factory.bin /tmp
ubiformat -f /tmp/openwrt-kirkwood-dockstar-squashfs-factory.bin
# attach is important to resize rootfs_data otherwise it wont boot
ubiattach -p /dev/$(grep ubi /proc/mtd|awk -F: '{print $1}')
