[flashrom] Add PICkit2 as an SPI programmer

Hey Stefan,

Apologies for the late response.

voltage=0V along with the 3 voltage levels was basically just a matter
of doing the same thing as the Dediprog code. The 3 voltage levels in
particular made sense as I assumed that covered all current SPI chips.
I'm not sure what the hardware will do if other values are chosen,
although you've piqued my interest. If someone else doesn't beat me to
it, I'll try out the committed (thanks btw) version of the patch and
attempt setting other voltages.

Justin
