[PATCH v3 03/40] mtd: rawnand: Create a new enumeration to describe OOB placement

[Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

There is currently a confusion between the ECC type/mode/provider
(eg. hardware, software, on-die or none) and the in-bad/out-of-band
layout which is only described for hardware engines (OOB first,
syndrome).

Create a new enumeration to describe this placement.
