Hello build bot (Jenkins), Simon Buhrow, Thomas Heijligen, Edward O'Callaghan, Anastasia Klimchuk,

flashrom.c:Add helper functions needed for new erase selection algorithm

1)Add a function to flatten out the addresses of the flash chip as per
the different erase functions. This function will return a list of layouts
which is dynamically allocated. So after use all the layouts as well as
the list itself should be freed. The free_erase_layout function does
that.

2)Add a function to align start and end address of the region (in struct
walk_info) to some erase sector boundaries and modify the region start
and end addresses to match nearest erase sector boundaries. This
function will be used in the new algorithm for erase function selection.

3)Add a function that returns a list of sectors (as seen by the first
erase function) that need erasing.
