#10844: remove unused filesystem blocks from .zd files

--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
As part of #9411 it was requested that "''OFW knows to only write
blocks/chunks where data actually resides, rather than writing out a full
4gb of data every time''".
Since OFW cannot reasonable identify which blocks contain data (requires
extensive processing and support for ext2, ext3, and ext4), we instead
move this responsibility to olpc-os-builder.
* fix olpc-os-builder to exclude unused filesystem blocks,
* fix XO-1.5 OpenFirmware to accept .zd files with missing blocks,
* fix XO-1.75 OpenFirmware to accept .zd files with missing blocks.
