add support of ExtendedLinearAddressRecord and add start address handling and parsing of non-contiguous memory maps (#11)

[adriy-be]

Description

Follow the title.
Now the ExtendedLinearAddressRecord was supported, non-continuous region generated multiple dfu elements.

The PR and code was not perfect but hope my work can help.

Motivation and Context

I'm generating a DFU from a hex, but when I flash my device, that doesn't work. It's due to ExtendedLinearAddressRecord was not supported and also my hex have non-contiguous memory.

How Has This Been Tested?

Generate the DFU with St tool and compare the dfu generated with wxHexEditor

@adriy-be is this replacing #11?

It may.
I also add the support type "extended linear address record".
I'm not expert in DFU and hex files. It's working in my case, but I don't have other hex to try.

OK. If that's the case, then please close it with this information.

Understood. If you're confident on this let's go for it.
I would be more confident if you could update and/or add Unit Tests to cover these changes.
