[PATCH V2 2/2] mtd: parsers: add TP-Link SafeLoader partitions table parser

From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal at milecki.pl>

This parser deals with most TP-Link home routers. It reads info about
partitions and registers them in the MTD subsystem.

+	  about flash space layout is stored in a partitions table using a
+	  custom ASCII-based format.
+
+	  That format was first found in devices with SafeLoader bootloader and
+	  was named after it. Later it was adapted to CFE and U-Boot
