UBI: handle bit-flips when no header found

Currently UBI has one small flaw - when we read EC or VID header, but find only
0xFF bytes, we return UBI_IO_FF and do not report whether we had bit-flips or
not. In case of the VID header, the scanning code adds this PEB to the free list,
even though there were bit-flips.

Imagine the following situation: we start writing VID header to a PEB and have a
power cut, so the PEB becomes unstable. When we scan and read the PEB, we get
a bit-flip. Currently, UBI would just ignore this and treat the PEB as free. This
patch changes UBI behavior and now UBI will schedule this PEB for erasure.
