mtd: spi-nor: micron-st: Add support for is25wx01g

Add support for the ISSI IS25WX01G, a 1 Gbit (128 MiB) octal NOR flash.
The part is fully described by SFDP, so only the flash ID and a small
post_bfpt fixup are needed.

[Severity: Medium]
Will this incorrectly expose the ISSI flash manufacturer as "micron" in sysfs?

By placing the ISSI chip inside the micron_nor_parts[] array, it looks like its
manufacturer identity will be hardcoded to Micron.

When spi_nor_match_id() matches the ID, it unconditionally links the sysfs
manufacturer string to the array the chip resides in:

drivers/mtd/spi-nor/core.c:spi_nor_match_id() {
    ...
		if (part->id &&
		    !memcmp(part->id->bytes, id, part->id->len)) {
			nor->manufacturer = manufacturers[i];
			return part;
		}
    ...
}

Could this break sysfs ABI expectations for identifying the chip's true
manufacturer? This also seems to contradict the test output in the patch
notes which shows the manufacturer sysfs attribute returning "issi".
