target-utils: added 10 ms delay at the end of abb_power_off() The deosmification of the ABB access code (replacement of osmo_delay_ms() bogus delays with correctly-timed ones, which are significantly shorter) had one annoying side effect: when executing the poweroff command from any of the programs, one last '=' prompt character was being sent (and received by the x86 host) as the Calypso board powers off. With delays being shorter now, the abb_power_off() function was returning and the standalone program's main loop was printing its prompt before the Iota chip fully executed the switch-off sequence! I thought about inserting an endless tight loop at the end of the abb_power_off() function, but the implemented solution of a 10 ms delay is a little nicer IMO because if the DEVOFF operation doesn't happen for some reason in a manual hacking scenario, there won't be an artificial blocker in the form of a tight loop keeping us from further poking around.

Changes from loadtools-r2 to fc-host-tools-r3:

* Implemented support for Mot C1xx (Compal) targets in addition to the
  previously supported Openmoko and Pirelli.  Compal phones have different
  flash, require a different procedure for gaining code download access, and
  have additional bricking concerns.

* Updated loadagent includes Intel flash support and ABB commands needed for
  Compal phones.

* The range of IRAM addresses used by loadagent changed to allow gsm-fw
  ramImage builds (chain-loaded with fc-xram) to load their IRAM code section
  directly into place.

* Loadtool's flash program-bin command now automatically performs a CRC-32
  verification after programming.

* Miscellaneous minor polish.

Changes from loadtools-r1 to loadtools-r2:

* A flash ID check has been implemented in fc-loadtool, invoked automatically
  before doing any erase or program operations, or explicitly at any time with
  the flash info command.  This check ensures that the type of flash chip in
  the target GSM device is the same as what loadtool thinks it is, based on the
  hardware parameters file.

* fc-xram command line syntax changed slightly in order to support immediate
  passing of the serial line to rvinterf/rvtdump.

* Miscellaneous minor polish.
