storage: Modify storageBackendWipeLocal to allow zero from end of device

Add bool 'zero_end' and logic that would allow a caller to wipe specific
portions of a target device either from the beginning (the default) or
from the end when zero_end is true.

This will allow for this code to wipe out partition table information
from a device.
