 - /usr/include/cpu/param.h defines PAGE_MASK already, hence use another
   name for the respective macro in nicintel_eeprom.c.
 - Since DragonflyBSD 3.6 DPorts is used as the default package manager.
   Therefore we should use /usr/local/ instead of /usr/pkg/ on default
   to fetch libraries.

Make it easier to compile flashrom under NetBSD and DragonFlyBSD:
 - Use /usr/pkg/ as prefix for includes and linking
 - Use pciutils as include path for the right(tm) libpci

Also, fix date handling in getrevision.sh to work with the various formats for
invoking 'date'. This also uses svn's info --xml output instead of the regular one.

[PATCH] Fix pciutils non-32bit PCI write on OpenBSD

- Force chip read by faking probe success.
- Force chip access even if the chip is bigger than max decode size for
  the flash bus.
- Force erase even if erase is known bad.
- Force write even if write is known bad.
- Force writing even if cbtable tells us that this is the wrong image
  for this board.

This patch cleans up --force usage:
- Remove any suggestions to use --force for probe/read from flashrom
  output.
- Don't talk about "success" or "Found chip" if the chip is forced.
- Add a new internal programmer parameter boardmismatch=force. This
  overrides any mismatch detection from cbtable/image comparisons.
- Add a new internal programmer parameter laptop=force_I_want_a_brick.
- Adjust the documentation for --force.
- Clean up the man page a bit whereever it talks about --force or
  laptops.

Additional changes in this patch:
- Add warnings about laptops to the documentation.
- Abort if a laptop is detected. Can be overridden with the programmer
parameter mentioned above.
- Add "Portable" to the list of DMI strings indicating laptops.
- Check if a chip specified with -c is known to flashrom.
- Programmer parameter reliability and consistency fixes.
- More paranoid self-checks.
- Improve documentation.

So far, the only case where libz is needed is when a library (libpci)
pulls in libz and even then it only happens if libpci is available in a
static version only and said static version has libz requirements.

Check for libpci separately and don't require libz if it isn't needed.

In particular, it should no longer be necessary to patch the makefile
for hassle-free compilation.

The targets are:
make export
make tarball
Both preserve svn revisions and the exported tree does not depend on
subversion in any way or shape.

Documentation for this feature has been added to README.

We need this for five reasons:
1. Packagers currently have to patch flashrom source to compile it on
systems without subversion. We should make it easier for them.
2. Snapshot tarballs currently have a .svn 1.5 directory included but
this will cause errors for users with older svn 1.4. Not requiring
subversion for snapshot compilation is best.
3. Since packagers seldom the svn revision in their fixup patches, some
packages out there have incorrect or no revision, only major version
numbers.
4. Releasing a new version of flashrom needs too many changes to the
makefile which have to be reverted instantly after the release. That is
unnecessary churn.
5. Making a release is easy with the change. Update the major version,
then run "make tarball".
