Add offset to request_firmware_into_buf to allow for portions

AFAIU, this won't work with the fallback user helper, right?
Seems to work fine in the fw_run_tests.sh with fallbacks.
Also it won't work for the compressed firmware files as-is.
Although unnecessary, seems to work fine in the fw_run_tests.sh with
"both" and "xzonly" options.
So this new API usage is for the limited use cases, hence it needs
such checks and returns error/warns if the condition isn't met.
IOW, this can't be a simple extension of request_firmware_into_buf()
to pass a new flag.
thanks,
Takashi
