iicdev_writeto() does the correct sequence of operations.

I think if you set the ADDRDIS bit in the device control register and
ignore the NOSTOP flag in the messages, it will work for most slave
devices.  Some slave devices require a repeat-start to work correctly,
and those will never work right on a controller like this.
