[RFC] Porting kernel MTD tests to user space

[Richard Weinberger]

David was so kind and did an initial port of Linux's MTD tests to user space.
He took most tests as-is and massaged them to work in user space using libmtd.
In the long run the goal is giving up the kernel tests as much as possible
and improve the tests present in mtd-utils.

Feedback is very welcome!

Thanks,
