Oh!  So, just hack together an i2c_tag_t suitable for passing to
seeprom_bootstrap_read, given various assumptions I can make on this hardware?

I think what threw me off about this is that the instances I found of this
elsewhere (e.g., armadillo) appeared to feel it necessary to write whole new
functions whose addresses could be stuffed into the i2c_tag_t.
