flash: stop caching protection state
There are a million reasons why cached protection state might
be stale: power cycling of target, reset, code executing on
the target, etc.
The "flash protect_check" command is now gone. This is *always*
executed when running a "flash info".
As a bonus for more a more robust approach, lots of code could
be deleted.
