nandwrite: Add --skip-bad-blocks-to-start option
The --skip-bad-blocks-to-start option will increase the seek offset by the size of each bad block encountered between the start of the partition and the specified start address. This can be useful when writing part way through a partition that will be read using a simple bad-block-skipping algorithm.
