spiffs mounting improvements

[raburton]

Allows the location and length of the spiffs to be specified by the app, the app
should be compiled with DISABLE_SPIFFS to prevent auto mounting and then call
spiffs_mount_manual with the desired parameters from the init function.

This was requested by rBoot users and allows mounting of multiple different
spiffs images along side multiple OTAable rom images.

Should it be synced with the upstream? https://github.com/pellepl/spiffs

I don't think so, none of the code altered exists upstream. spiffs.c isn't there at all and the small change to the declarations in spiffs.h aren't in the upstream version.

Ah, You're right. spiffs.c is sming-specific.

Richard,

I don't see a change to support bypassing the spiffs_mount() in user_main.cpp. Above you mention "DISABLE_SPIFFS"...did you forget to commit the change for that?

EDIT: actually looking at the recent merges, there was a change by "Andrei Diea" that adds the "DISABLE_SPIFFS" variable and example to the CFLAGS.

That's right, it's already there from a recent commit. It saved me having to add something similar myself.

I think that's right direction for lager flash chips, thank you.
