ChangeLog:
31.12.2010 first proposal
18.01.2011 fixes suggested by Artem:
           - fix help message
	   - rename the tool into tuneubifs
	   - rename mkfs.ubifs" directory into "ubifs-utils"
	   - move the tool to ubifs-utils/tuneubifs
	   - code cleanup
18.01.2011 split the patch into a rename and a add patch

tuneubifs allows the system administrator to adjust various tunable filesystem
parameters on Linux ubifs filesystems. The current values of these parameters
can be displayed by using the -v or calling without any option.

Currently the tuneubifs supports the following parameters:

-x, --compr=<none|lzo|zlib>    compression type
-R, --reserved=SIZE            how much space should be reserved for super-user

Maybe it will be nice to adjust also the uid and gid of the reserved owner,
or the increase the max. size of the ubi filesystem. This will be very
simple to implement.
