Matrix Glitcher V2 Rev C Compatible With Glitch Conona V2

Matrix Glitcher V2 rev.C officialy supports Corona V2.
------------------------------------------------------

Well, since production of the new reader is about to start we might as well announce it :

Matrix Glitcher V2 rev.C officialy supports Corona V2.

A new nand reader/writer had to be developed to interface to the 4GB Corona motherboard due to the new phison chip and the differences in the communication protocol.

Installation difficulty is about the same as the old nand spi reader (even though the pads are slightly closer together, installers will have the choice to use a quick solder board or directly solder wires to the motherboard).

One small note regarding nand dumps : V2 nand dumps don't have ECC bytes (this is by design, since they are stripped by the phison controller which also takes care of blocks remapping and a bunch of other stuff), so scripts that expect them to be present might need to be modified (either that or they need to be added after the nand has been dumped).
The final nand reader software will automatically add/remove ECC bytes to the nand image as to try to preserve compatibility with existing software as much as possible.
