libflash: Return a pointer to internal structure.
There are some functions (notably: erase_chip and set_4b_mode) which cannot
be abstracted away by the blocklevel interface, this means that if they are
really needed (by pflash for example) then at the moment a program like
pflash would need to pass a blocklevel_device struct to libflash.
This forces libflash to trust that it was given a blocklevel that it did
init. If it didn't init it the container_of call will return junk and
libflash has no way to protect its self. This method (while very useful)
has destroyed type safety. As such, this commit reintroduces some
typesafety back into this stack.
