pstore/blk: Support non-block storage devices
Add support for non-block devices (e.g. MTD). A non-block driver calls pstore_blk_register_device() to register iself. In addition, pstore/zone is updated to handle non-block devices, where an erase must be done before a write. Without this, there is no way to remove records stored to an MTD.
