Added warnings about flashing only an AP file and using MTP.

Browse Source 
MTP is now known to sometimes corrupt the AP file on transfer to the PC,
so we should warn users to prefer `adb`.

Furthermore, quite a few users are reporting a shrunken `/data`
file-system after flashing with Odin. This has been traced to the
flashing of only an AP file, which causes some versions of Odin to
shrink `/data`. The phenomenon is reproducable.
