[PATCH V7 4/6] mtd: partitions: add support for subpartitions

From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal at milecki.pl>

Some flash device partitions can be containers with extra subpartitions
(volumes). All callbacks are already capable of this additional level of
indirection.

This patch makes sure we always display subpartitions using a tree
structure and takes care of deleting subpartitions when parent gets
removed.

V5: Introduction of this patch to handle offset in allocate_partition
    and avoid casting const to non-const in mtd_parse_part.
V6: Rework patch to support tree structure.
