There is a max length for system property names at 32 characters. The
old recovery property name was over this length.
Renamed the property to one much shorter so it is read properly.

The change switches is_safe_to_format() from a hard coded list
to a list that can be overwritten by system property.

For the Power menu,
frameworks/base/core/jni/android_os_Power.cpp#L180
already uses TARGET_RECOVERY_PRE_COMMAND if
TARGET_RECOVERY_PRE_COMMAND is defined in the
BoardConfig.mk for a device to make a system() call before
calling __reboot() for recovery. This commit adds
the same thing to the other places that we know we are
getting into recovery using __reboot().

Stock sd-card that ships with LG-P500 formatted with no partitions.
This issue can be handled with device2 in recovery.fstab.
But UMS didn't.
We will try to mount second device (if it was defined) if first failed.

The Samsung Galaxy S bootloader apparently expects the kernel to be flashed to BML-managed flash - bad erase blocks will be mapped from a reservoir area.
CWM however just skips bad blocks, the usual procedure for mtd-accessed flash.
Consequently, the bootloader sees a corrupt zImage, and will usually crash when the kernel initializes.
This of course will only happen when the "boot" partition has bad blocks.
This patch was written by "eifert" and adds a tool called "bml_over_mtd" for flashing boot images which takes care of bad blocks and maps them to a reservoir area, like BML does.

Don't allow formatting of special partitions like radio, bootloader,
or misc. No sense in formatting recovery from recovery either dawg.

cwm 3.0.2.4 had the bad habbit to bind back key to enter,
which is the same function as power key, when there is no
select-button on that device.
many many new (htc) devices got: home | menu | back | search
back should be always back. having back working as enter
button confused the shit out of me.
home/menu was not used. i bound up/down highlight movement to it
back is fixed back. search on the other hand is replacement enter.
so, you can control the whole recovery with those 4 easy-to-reach
keys now. on some devices power/vol+/vol- are kinda hard to reach.
if this patch breaks any other devices i am not aware off, please
handle this issue in another sane way.
