Do not require Flash device for TDBStore

TDBStore used to rely on Flash devices erase value.
This logic has been removed, and TDBStore can do the entire erase
logic itself, in case the given BlockDevice does not offer erase().
This relies on BlockDevice to properly return -1 in BlockDevice::get_erase_value().
