In python 2.5 and earlier, ZipFile.writestr(filename, data) results in
the file being added to the archive with permissions 000. (See
http://svn.python.org/view?view=rev&revision=65235.) Work around this
by creating a ZipInfo object and setting the permissions explicitly.
Modify applypatch to be able to write MTD partitions as well as read
them. Make applypatch save a backup copy of the contents of an MTD
partition it reads in cache, to be used in case an update is
interrupted while writing back to MTD. Modify OTA package creation
script to send boot image updates in patch form.
Allow an MTD partition so serve as a source "file" in applypatch,
using a magically-formatted 'filename' that specifies the partition
name, size of data to read, and expected hash. Build incremental OTAs
that update the recovery image via a patch.
Allow applypatch to use different filenames for the source and target.
(Using the same filename is still fine; in fact the target filename
can be specified as "-" to mean "same as the source file.) This will
allow us to still use diffs in the case of files being renamed, and
will allow us to use diffs for the boot and recovery images.
