The -i option of the dumpimage tool has been removed so it should no
longer be documented in the README file. Refer readers to the tool's
help output rather than maintain a copy of the usage in the README.
Finally, adjust the example dumpfile invocation in imagetool.h to use
the -o option instead of the removed -i option.

-The "dumpimage" is a tool to disassemble images built by mkimage. Its "-i"
-option performs the converse operation of the mkimage's second form (the "-d"
-option). Given an image built by mkimage, the dumpimage extracts a "data file"
-from the image:
-
- tools/dumpimage -i image -T type -p position data_file
- -i ==> extract from the 'image' a specific 'data_file'
- -T ==> set image type to 'type'
- -p ==> 'position' (starting at 0) of the 'data_file' inside the 'image'
-
+The "dumpimage" tool can be used to disassemble or list the contents of images
+built by mkimage. See dumpimage's help output (-h) for details.
