[Skiboot] [PATCH 08/15] libflash/libffs: Remove the 'sides' from the FFS TOC generation code

It turns out this code was messy and not all that reliable. Doing it at
the library level adds complexity to the library and restrictions to the
caller.

A simpler approach can be achived with the just instantiating multiple
ffs_header structures pointing to different parts of the same file.
