Serial Flasher Protocol Specification - version 1 (0x01 return value == 1)

Command And Answer Sequence - all commands give an answer.
PC: COMMAND(8bit) <parameters determined by opcode>
DEV: ACK/NAK(8bit) <OPTIONAL RETURN BYTES (only if ACK)> / nothing
Command 0x10 (SYNCNOP) has a special return of NAK+ACK for synchronization.

ACK = 0x06
NAK = 0x15

All multibyte values are little-endian. Addresses and lengths are 24-bit.

0x13	Perform SPI operation		24-bit slen + 24-bit rlen	ACK + rlen bytes of data / NAK
					 + slen bytes of data
0x14	Set SPI clock frequency in Hz	32-bit requested frequency	ACK + 32-bit set frequency / NAK
0x??	unimplemented command - invalid.


Additional information of the above commands:
	About unimplemented commands / startup sequence:
		Only commands allowed to be used without checking anything are 0x00,0x10 and 0x01 (NOP,SYNCNOP,Q_IFACE).
		If 0x01 doesn't return 1, dont do anything if you dont support a newer protocol.
		Then, check support for any other opcode (except 0x02) by using 0x02 (Q_CMDMAP).
	0x02 (Q_CMDMAP):
		The map's bits are mapped as follows:
		cmd 0 support: byte 0 bit 0
		cmd 1 support: byte 0 bit 1
		cmd 7 support: byte 0 bit 7
		cmd 8 support: byte 1 bit 0, and so on.
	0x04 (Q_SERBUF):
		If the programmer has a guaranteed working flow control,
		it should return a big bogus value - eg 0xFFFF.
	0x05 (Q_BUSTYPE):
		The bit's are defined as follows:
		bit 0: PARALLEL, bit 1: LPC, bit 2: FWH, bit 3: SPI.
	0x06 (Q_CHIPSIZE):
		Only applicable to parallel programmers.
		An LPC/FWH/SPI-programmer can report this as not supported in the command bitmap.
	0x08 (Q_WRNMAXLEN):
		If a programmer reports a bigger maximum write-n length than the serial buffer size,
		it is assumed that the programmer can process the data fast enough to take in the
		reported maximum write-n without problems.
	0x0F (O_EXEC):
		Execute operation buffer will also clear it, regardless of the return value.
	0x11 (Q_RDNMAXLEN):
		If this command is not supported, assume return of 0 (2^24).
	0x12 (S_BUSTYPE):
		Set's the used bustype if the programmer can support more than one flash protocol.
		Sending a byte with more than 1 bit set will make the programmer decide among them
		on it's own. Bit values as with Q_BUSTYPE.
	0x13 (O_SPIOP):
		Send and receive bytes via SPI.
		Maximum slen is Q_WRNMAXLEN in case Q_BUSTYPE returns SPI only or S_BUSTYPE was used
		to set SPI exclusively before. Same for rlen and Q_RDNMAXLEN.
		This operation is immediate, meaning it doesnt use the operation buffer.
	0x14 (S_SPI_FREQ):
		Set the SPI clock frequency. The 32-bit value indicates the
		requested frequency in Hertz. Value 0 is reserved and should
		be NAKed by the programmer. The requested frequency should be
		mapped by the programmer software to a supported frequency
		lower than the one requested. If there is no lower frequency
		available the lowest possible should be used. The value
		chosen is sent back in the reply with an ACK.
	About mandatory commands:
		The only truly mandatory commands for any device are 0x00, 0x01, 0x02 and 0x10,
		but one can't really do anything with these commands.
		Support for the following commands is necessary for flashrom to operate properly:
		S_CMD_Q_SERBUF, S_CMD_Q_OPBUF, S_CMD_Q_WRNMAXLEN, S_CMD_R_BYTE,
		S_CMD_R_NBYTES, S_CMD_O_INIT, S_CMD_O_WRITEB, S_CMD_O_WRITEN,
		S_CMD_O_DELAY, S_CMD_O_EXEC.
		In addition, support for these commands is recommended:
		S_CMD_Q_PGMNAME, S_CMD_Q_BUSTYPE, S_CMD_Q_CHIPSIZE (if parallel).
