bootstd: android: Allow boot with AVB failures when unlocked

When the bootloader is UNLOCKED, it should be possible to boot Android
even if AVB reports verification errors [1].

This allows developers to flash modified partitions on
userdebug/engineering builds.

Developers can do so on unlocked devices with:
$ fastboot flash --disable-verity --disable-verification vbmeta vbmeta.img

In such case, bootmeth_android refuses to boot.

Allow the boot to continue when the device is UNLOCKED and AVB reports
verification errors.
