I don't know that device at all, but there are various programmer
modules in flashrom that can give you hints how to add support for it.
"/dev/hidraw" sounds as if it is Linux-specific therefore I suggest you
take a look at linux_spi.c and mstarddc_spi.c.

To get an idea of how to hook up the programmer and what else is
necessary for a complete patch you can take a look at the patch that
added the mstar ddc driver:
http://code.coreboot.org/p/flashrom/source/commit/1860/
or the preliminary (and probably broken) programmer driver creation
script: http://patchwork.coreboot.org/patch/3836/
