- get the data from a BDataIO
- Remove references to the EngineData class
- Remove references to class MemIO and replace it with BPositionIO to
make a generic hex editor
- Simplifications to remove support for read-only areas (editing RAM/ROM
areas)

New description:

 Improve Diskprobe's debugging feature(s).

 Issue: DiskProbe is very limited and its design is hardcoded to blocks. It
 don’t even allow copy hex data as string or select between block
 boundaries.
