[Skiboot] [RFC 0/3] More FFS capabilities

In the original ffs tool, the flags were a free form set of user data word. This patch set attempts to enumerate the flags even though many of them are not of concern to skiboot but are used only by hostboot. I suspect some of them are changing for P9. 

Can we give a mechanism to still add to the user data words without modifying the upstream skiboot repo?
