zephyr: erase flash pages progressively
This commit adds the option to erase flash pages while receiving
the firmware, opposed to bulk-erasing the whole image area at
the beginning of the DFU process. This is required on some
hardware that has long erase times, to prevent a long wait
and possibly a timeout during DFU.
