Hung-Te Lin 3cfacbf196 cbfstool: Add buffer management API.
Many functions in cbfstool need to deal with a memory buffer - both location and
size. Right now it's made by different ways: for ROM image using global variable
(romsize, master_header); and in cbfs-* using return value for size and char**
to return memory location.

This may cause bugs like assuming incorrect return types, ex:
	uint32_t file_size = parse();	// which returns "-1" on error
	if (file_size <= 0) { ...
And the parse error will never be caught.

We can simplify this by introducing a buffer API, to change
	unsigned int do_something(char *input, size_t len, char **output, ...)
into
	int do_something(struct buffer *input, struct buffer *output, ...)

The buffer API will be used by further commits.
