[PATCH v2 1/3] mtd: rawnand: nand_base: support for 'NAND_IS_BOOT_MEDIUM' flag

Based on Linux kernel:
commit f922bd798bb9 ("mtd: rawnand: add an option to specify NAND chip as a boot device")

Allow to define a NAND chip as a boot device. This can be helpful
for the selection of the ECC algorithm and strength in case the boot
ROM supports only a subset of controller provided options.
