[Libdlo] Programming firmware to eeprom

[Ben Collins]

Our product is already in its third revision, there's no changing it now. I appreciate the sentiment, but I need this solution. I know according to the docs and DisplayLink that writing the firmware is possible (they have a tool that does it on Windows).

I'm just trying to figure out if anyone knows how to do it a the low level so I can do it on our hardware.
