Similarly to the debugging checks and message, make the test modes
be dynamically selected via the "debug_tsts" module parameter or
via the "/sys/module/ubi/parameters/debug_tsts" sysfs file. This
is consistent with UBIFS as well.

And now, since all the Kconfig knobs became dynamic, we can remove
the Kconfig.debug file completely.

This patch adds a possibility to dynamically switch UBI self-checks
on and off, instead of toggling them compile-time from the configuration
menu. This is much more flexible, and consistent with UBIFS, and this
also simplifies UBI Kconfig menu and the code.

This patch introduces two levels of self-checks - general, which
includes all self-checks which are relatively fast, and I/O, which
includes write-verify checks and erase-verify checks, which are
relatively slow and involve flash I/O.

Useful for debugging problems, compiled in only if UBI debugging
is enabled. This patch also makes the UBI writing function dump
the flash if it fails to write.

An image sequence number is added to the UBI erase-counter header
to be able determine if the root file system contains a mixture
of old and new images (because the flashing failed to complete).

A change to nolo is also needed for this to take effect.

<title>UBI: remove pre-sqnum images support</title>

<content type='text'>
Before UBI got into mainline, there was a slight flash format
change - we did not have sequence number support, then added it.

We have carried full support of those ancient images till this
moment. Now the support is removed, well, not fully removed.

Now UBI will support only _clean_ old images, which were cleanly
detached last time (just before kernel upgrade). This is most
likely the case.

But we will not support unclean ancient images. Surprisingly,
this allows us to remove a big chunk of legacy code.

And the same should be true for downgrading: clean images should
downgrade fine, but unclean ones will not.
