mtd: always build partitioning support
There are very few situations where MTD partitioning is not required,
and the benefit in code size reduction by making this configurable does
not warrant the level of ifdeffery needed.
Artem: this patch is not final - we just make sure that mtd partitions
are always compiled in, and at the end of the series we'll kill
MTD_PARTITIONS altogether.

- If you have a device which needs to divide its flash chip(s) up
- into multiple 'partitions', each of which appears to the user as
- a separate MTD device, you require this option to be enabled. If
- unsure, say 'Y'.

- Note, however, that you don't need this option for the DiskOnChip

- 'normal' form of partitioning used on a block device.
