LGTool by jcase and beaups, root backdoor for LG G5 and other phones

We were sitting on this, however it seems a commercial hacking tool has burned this last week. So its now publicly known, no use sitting on the source.

No documentation, other than the /kilocent command is needed to auth before doing anything else on newer phones. Read the code, it is short.

This gains access to LG's laf backdoor.

On top of that, we bypassed the cmd restrictions using a "feature" in toolbox to enable more commands as root.

For Tmobile LG G5 wanting a recovery, build your twrp, and flash it.

You can flash it by either completing the WRITE function (left it out, will complete myself when time allows), or without any additional coding, use the /exec function and use DD to overwrite the stock recovery partition on mmcblk0 (be careful, use the exact offsets or you will brick).
