flash: Add optional verify-after-write feature

Browse Source 
Sometimes it might make sense to verify the written data to NOR flash.
This patch adds this feature. To enable this verify-after-write, you
need to define CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY in your board config header.

Please note that this option is useless in nearly all cases,
since such flash programming errors usually are detected earlier
while unprotecting/erasing/programming. Please only enable
this option if you really know what you are doing.

- CONFIG_FLASH_VERIFY
If defined, the content of the flash (destination) is compared
against the source after the write operation. An error message
will be printed when the contents are not identical.
