As of now, the only OOB-size that's not a multiple of 16 supported in
the other bits of ugly code is 218-bytes.
218 % 16 = 10
What's the point of checking for a "supported" page-size/OOB-size
earlier if we're not gonna use that info? :)

I'm looking at that, since it seems a better solution. Does anyone
oppose including ASCII output in the "pretty" option? It's built in to
the print_hex_dump() already, so it shouldn't be too difficult to adapt.
Anyway, it seems that someone intended to print ASCII at some point
(nanddump.c, line 77):
static bool pretty_print = false; // print nice in ascii
