image_to_usb.sh: allow writing to character devices

Browse Source 
This is useful for debugging, e.g. --to /dev/null. The user will have to
use --force_non_usb to allow this, in which case all bets are off and we
should let her do this.  Also note that, before this fix, using --to
/dev/null would have given a strange error message (target device does
not exist); with it, we're handling all devices in a more comprehensive
way, spitting the right error message when appropriate.

BUG=None
TEST=--to /dev/null dies as expected; works with --force_non_usb
