Add extra_chunks option to compile
This allow languages such as Elixir and LFE to attach
extra chunks to the .beam file without having to parse
the beam file after compilation.
This commit also cleans up the interface to beam_asm,
allowing chunks to be passed from the compiler without
a need to change beam_asm API on every new chunk.
