flash_erase: start position should be in bytes
Commit a8801d8 (unify flash_erase and flash_eraseall) changed the flash_erase interface in a backwards incompatible way. Before that commit start position was given in bytes, and now it must be provided in blocks. While I agree the new interface is nicer, we shouldn't break the interface. I have scripts that expect the old behaviour, and I'm most likely not alone, so change the interface back to the old way.
