FAT: Make it possible to read from any file position

When storage devices contain files larger than the embedded RAM, it is
useful to be able to read these files by chunks, e.g. for a software
update to the embedded NAND Flash from an external storage device (USB
stick, SD card, etc.).

Hence, this patch makes it possible by adding a new FAT API to read
files from a given position. This patch also adds this feature to the
fatload command.
