Assumed to be a remnant of early development lead to a recent transition
of "start_sector" from being represented as a string to an integer. But
it turns out that "start_sector" might be an expression, e.g. to write
something at the end of the disk.
So transition back to carry "start_sector" as a string.

On some newer platforms the device ignore the configure request to
disable ZLP, causing the Firehose program request to stall, when the
device is waiting for a ZLP to end a transfer.
Mitigate this by circumventing the qcserial driver and drive the USB
traffic directly using USBFS. The tool will attempt to detach qcserial
from the device, in case it's already attached, so no changes are needed
in the kernel or system configuration.

Moved the two functions to util.c to remove duplicate code.
The previous error handling in some of the implemenations was
incomplete as it caused qdl to crash.
While the variable errors was incremented we still tried to
return the regular result. Now returning 0/NULL in case of error.

Failures to apply program or patch operations are silently ignored,
forcing the user to inspect the logs to conclude if the flashing
succeded. Instead make the operations halt execution.
