UBI: remove duplicate IO error codes

The 'UBI_IO_PEB_EMPTY' and 'UBI_IO_PEB_FREE' are essentially the same
and mean that there are only 0xFF bytes instead of headers. Simplify
UBI a little by turning them into a single 'UBI_IO_FF' error code.

Also, stop maintaining commentaries in 'ubi_io_read_vid_hdr()' which are
almost identical to commentaries in 'ubi_io_read_ec_hdr()'.
