mtd: brcmnand: respect ECC algorithm set by NAND subsystem
This is more obvious than guessing based on ECC strength. It allows using NAND on devices with BCH-1 (e.g. D-Link DIR-885L). This maintains DT backward compatibility by defaulting to Hamming if a 1-bit ECC algorithm is specified without a corresponding algorithm selection. i.e., to use BCH-1, you must specify: nand-ecc-strength = <1>; nand-ecc-step-size = <512>; nand-ecc-algo = "bch"; Also adds a check to ensure we haven't allowed someone to get by with SW ECC. If we want to support SW ECC, we need to refactor some other pieces of this driver.
