i think our output when we find a chip is much more misleading:
> Found chip "Winbond W25X64"
if one tries to use -c "Winbond W25X64" then it will fail, the code
above has no such problem. i am certain some termination between
multiple chips is needed, even if there are none with spaces in their
names. this increases readability of the message a lot imho:
Multiple flash chips were detected: ABC/DEF XYZ
vs.
Multiple flash chips were detected: "ABC/DEF", "XYZ"
