The current name is too generic. Add a 'blk_' prefix to aid searching and

Use 'struct' instead of a typdef. Also since 'struct block_dev_desc' is long
and causes 80-column violations, rename it to struct blk_desc.

This will allow the implementation to make use of data in the block_dev
structure beyond the base device number. This will be useful so that eMMC
block devices can encompass the HW partition ID rather than treating this
out-of-band. Equally, the existence of the priv field is crying out for
this patch to exist.

The Android sparse image format is currently supported through a file
called aboot, which isn't really such a great name, since the sparse image
format is only used for transferring data with fastboot.
Rename the file and header to a file called "sparse", which also makes it
consistent with the header defining the image structures.

The fastboot flash command that writes an image to a partition works in
several steps:
1 - Retrieve the maximum size the device can download through the
"max-download-size" variable
2 - Retrieve the partition type through the "partition-type:%s" variable,
that indicates whether or not the partition needs to be erased (even
though the fastboot client has minimal support for that)
3a - If the image is smaller than what the device can handle, send the image
and flash it.
3b - If the image is larger than what the device can handle, create a
sparse image, and split it in several chunks that would fit. Send the
chunk, flash it, repeat until we have no more data to send.
However, in the 3b case, the subsequent transfers have no particular
identifiers, the protocol just assumes that you would resume the writes
where you left it.
While doing so works well, it also means that flashing two subsequent
images on the same partition (for example because the user made a mistake)
would not work withouth flashing another partition or rebooting the board,
which is not really intuitive.
Since we have always the same pattern, we can however maintain a counter
that will be reset every time the client will retrieve max-download-size,
and incremented after each buffer will be flashed, that will allow us to
tell whether we should simply resume the flashing where we were, or start
back at the beginning of the partition.

The current sparse image parser relies heavily on the MMC layer, and
doesn't allow any other kind of storage medium to be used.
Rework the parser to support any kind of storage medium, as long as there
is an implementation for it.

Implement an alias name check for devices where GPT limitations prevent
user-friendly partition names such as "boot", "system" and "cache". Or,
where the actual partition name doesn't match a standard partition name
used commonly with fastboot.
To set an alias, add an environment setting as follows:
fastboot_partition_alias_<alias partition name>=<actual partition name>
Example: fastboot_partition_alias_boot=LNX

Adds the fastboot erase functionality, to erase a partition
specified by name. The erase is performed based on erase group size,
to avoid erasing other partitions. The start address and the size
is aligned to the erase group size for this.
