tools: fix fw_printenv tool to compile again
This patch updates the fw_printenv/fw_setenv userspace tool to include the correct MTD header in order to compile against current kernel headers. Backward compatibility is preserved by introducing an option MTD_VERSION which can be set to "old" for compilation using the old MTD headers. Along with this a number of warnings are fixed.
