This adds mode 'i' for I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA. This is the same mode

Length is optional and defaults to 32 (maximum).
The indended use is debugging i2c devices with shell commands.
How does this differ from the 'i' option of i2cdump ?
Apparently i2cdump doesn't support a range in "i" mode. I considered
adding a range to i2cdump in all modes but:
- i2cdump code is a more complicated
- Not all devices interpret i2c bulk read as a register range. Reading X
bytes from register Y can be different from reading registers from X to X+Y.
