The attached patch, against mtd-snapshot-20040323, fixes RedBoot Partition
Table Parsing for unallocated flash space before the first image.

Also included are minor updates to:
1. include nullname only if it is used
2. add an option for selecting whether unallocated flash space is to be
included
3. follow eCos 2.0 by reading partition table from the whole of last erase
block instead of just the start
4. force read-only for RedBoot, RedBoot Config and FIS directory images

Please feel free to comment on the patch and its suitability for inclusion
into cvs.
