[PATCH] mtd: orion_nand: support selecting ECC mode via the device tree

Currently the Orion NAND ECC mode is hardcoded to NAND_ECC_SOFT, it does not
allow selecting any other ECC mode. This change makes it possible to use the
device tree to select other ECC modes. It still defaults to the original
mode NAND_ECC_SOFT.

This makes the driver more in line with other mtd nand drivers, that already
support similar ways to select the ECC mode.
