[flashrom] [patch] print test status in partial write test script

We were a bit too aggressive in trimming superfluous print messages earlier
on. This patch adds a line of output for each iteration of the while loops
in the test. The intention is to give the user something useful to indicate
test progress without just printing a ton of debug spew. Maybe a future
patch can redirect more verbose info to a log file.

The output looks like this::
localhost ~ # FLASHROM="./flashrom" sh flashrom_partial_write_test.sh
testing flashrom binary: ./flashrom
Running test in /tmp/tmp.4xPejwaADU
ffh pattern written in ff_4k.bin
00h pattern written in 00_4k.bin
Reading BIOS image
Original image saved as bios.bin
aligned region 0 test: passed
...
aligned region 15 test: passed
unaligned region 0 test: passed
...
unaligned region 15 test: passed
Result: PASSED
restoring original bios image using system's flashrom
test files remain in /tmp/tmp.4xPejwaADU
