[U-Boot] [PATCH v3] dfu, nand: before write a buffer to nand, erase the nand sectors

before writing the received buffer to nand, erase the nand
sectors. If not doing this, nand write fails. See for
more info here:

http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2013-June/156361.html

Using the nand erase option "spread", maybe overwrite
blocks on, for example another mtd partition, if the
erasing range contains bad blocks.
So a limit option is added to nand_erase_opts()

- changes for v2:
  - use opts.spread as Scott Wood suggested
- changes for v3:
  - add opts.lim as Scott Wood suggested
