nixos/sdcard: make firmware partition offset configurable

Different boards using u-boot SPL require to write to different
locations. Sometimes, the 8MiB gap isn't sufficient - rk3399 boards
write to 0x16384 for example, which is at 8MiB, thus overriding the
fat32 partition with the SPL.

Gap in front of the /boot/firmware partition, in mebibytes (1024×1024
bytes).
Can be increased to make more space for boards requiring to dd u-boot
SPL before actual partitions.
Unless you are building your own images pre-configured with an
installed U-Boot, you can instead opt to delete the existing `FIRMWARE`
partition, which is used **only** for the Raspberry Pi family of
hardware.
