Introduces new internal function, Page::alterEntryRangeState, which gathers changes to multiple elements of entry state table into a single write, provided that these changes fall into a single word. This allows changing state of up to 16 entries in a single write.
Also adds new function, writeEntryData, which writes the whole payload of SZ and BLOB type entries in one go, instead of splitting it into multiple 32-byte writes.
This reduces number of writes required for SZ and BLOB entries.
This commit fixes several issues with state handling in nvs::Page. It also adds extra consistency checks in nvs::PageManger initialization.
These changes were verified with a new long-running test ("test recovery from sudden poweroff"). This test works by repeatedly performing same pseudorandom sequence of calls to nvs_ APIs. Each time it repeats the sequence, it introduces a failure into one of flash operations (write or erase). So if one iteration of this test needs, say, 25000 flash operations, then this test will run 25000 iterations, each time introducing the failure point at different location.
