Fix internal offset calculations for SPI BYTE PROGRAM and SPI AAI PROGRAM
The bug was invisible so far because we always started at offset 0. The pending partial write patch uses nonzero start offsets and trips over this bug. Clarify a few comments in IT87 SPI. Thanks to Idwer Vollering for reporting write breakage with my latest partial write patch. This should fix the underlying problem. Corresponding to flashrom svn r1217.
