From: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy at nokia.com>

Implement the feature which we planned long time ago - make nanddump
fail if the -s parameter is not NAND page-aligned. Also bump nanddump
version.

-
-nanddump should be consistent with nandwrite, and refuse accepting non page
-aligned start addresses. These dumps are most likely useless, since nandwrite
-won't write then at this location. Currently only a warning is issued to keep
-backward compatibility during a transition period. This should become an error
