futility: flashrom_drv: support partial write for multiple regions

When we have multiple regions to update, invoking flashrom_write_image
multiple times will take much longer because for each write it has to
read the whole flash, write and then verify whole flash (also timer
calibration and programmer init/shutdown every time).

As a result, we want to support writing multiple regions - just like
that flashrom can take arbitrary numbers of "-i REGION".

This change only extended flashrom_write_image, and the firmware updater
is calling flashrom_drv multiple times. That will be addressed in the
follow up changes.
