This serie permits using any block device as target
for fastboot by moving the generic block logic into
a common set of helpers and also use them as generic
backend.

The erase logic has been extended to support software
erase since only 2 block drivers exposes the erase
operation.

Tests are welcome to make sure this series doesn't
introduce any regressions on the emmc backend.
