mtd: Introduce an expert mode for forensics and debugging purposes
When developping NAND controller drivers or when debugging filesystem corruptions, it is quite common to need hacking locally into the MTD/NAND core in order to get access to the content of the bad blocks. Instead of having multiple implementations out there let's provide a simple yet effective specific MTD-wide debugfs entry to fully disable these checks on purpose. A warning is added to inform the user when this mode gets enabled.
