i2c-eeprom utility based on python-mpsse

optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-a <8 / 16>, --addressbits <8 / 16>
addresstype (8 / 16), default to 8bits for <=16kbit
size, 16bits for eeprom > 16kbit
-s , --size
eeprom size in bytes
-p , --pagesize
count of bytes per page
-e, --erase erase eeprom (to FFh Values)
-r , --read
read eeprom to
-w , --write
write to eeprom
-d <0-7>, --eeprom-id <0-7>
3bit device-address of eeprom, hardwired, default = 0
-c <0-524288>, --count <0-524288>
number of bytes to read in read-mode. default = full
eeprom-size
-o <0-524287>, --offset <0-524287>
bytenumber to start reading at. default = 0
-S <ONE_HUNDRED_KHZ / FOUR_HUNDRED_KHZ/ ONE_MHZ>, --speed <ONE_HUNDRED_KHZ / FOUR_HUNDRED_KHZ/ ONE_MHZ>
I2C bus frequency. default = 100000KHz
-i <vendor_id:product_id>, --devicecode <vendor_id:product_id>
Vendor_ID:Product_ID default = 0403:6010
-I <A/B/C/D>, --interface <A/B/C/D>
Interface to use (if FTDI-device has multiple UART-
interfaces). default = A
-v, --verbose increase output verbosity
