rG89e3c2d27ab4: flash: add w25n (nand flash) support

Summary

This adds read only support for the W25N series of flash parts.

Specifically starting with the W25N01GV, a 128MiB SPI NAND flash.

This doesn't currently support writing or erasing, as this requires
a NAND flash layer that we don't currently have. There are also
plenty of other commands that aren't currently supported - notably
maintaining the on-chip flash translation layer, flash wear statistics,
etc.

But read support is fine enough for now; it at least allows for
reading the boot / config / calibration flash on my ASUS IPQ4018 based
router.

OK. This is fine.

But... the commands are likely part of a larger family of parts...

But this also looks pretty basic, so it's fine. There's no larger framework for NAND like we need to do this completely... but that's a huge lift and I don't want to hold this up.

I don't see anything here that's bad for 'basic' support that this targets.
