layout option, as well as areas, whose flash contents already contain the
desired data, will be skipped.
These ensures absolute data security of critical areas (BIOS boot block),
e.g. against a sudden power off or a CPU hangup during flashing. As a
nice side effect, it speeds up the flash process, if the BIOS to be flashed
is very similar to the version in flash.

- Also dump the extra registers (e.g. EC regs) in --list-supported.
- Small fix in the code to allow for building with -pedantic (yes,
the fix is a bit silly, but it's simple and allows us to use the
-pedantic flag to keep the code even cleaner and nicer).
- Install the binary in /usr/sbin, as it's meant to be run as root.
