Android Verified Boot (AVB) [1] protects Android systems by providing a root of trust in the vbmeta partition.
On unlocked devices, system developers might want to disable the root of trust to reflash only some partitions.
This is officially supported in the Android bootflow [2] but is not properly implemented in the Android bootmeth. For development purposes
Add support for this in bootmeth_android.
This has been tested on AM62Px SK EVM with TI's Android 15 release [3]
