Support different chips for flashing with external programmer #72

I was successfully able to flash my GalagoPro 3 C using Raspberry Pi. However, I had 5 hours of struggling trying to flash the built rom. spipi.sh kept telling me, chip not found. After digging and going though the script, I discovered that the chip name for galp3-c in models/galp3-c/chip.txt is "MX25L12805D" where my chip name is "GD25Q128C". I had to change that in models/galp3-c/chip.txt to be able to flash the rom.

Thanks,

The chip I believe can be either on galp3-c. The one we have here has the MX25L12805D chip. I will see if we can match either

Thanks Jeremy I bought mine a week before Galago Pro 4 was announced. I believe the one I got was from the last batch, I can't tell from the serial number though.

The lemp10 and galp5 I have also have different chips that the original models that were used for chip.txt. May need to list all possible values in chip.txt and loop through them until flashrom detects the correct one.
