wic: use truncate utility to create sparse files
Used truncate instead of dd to create wic images for the
following reasons:
- dd doesn't preserve sparseness
- truncate syntax is much more clear
- dd requires additional calculations of the image size
in blocks
- the way dd was used in the code is not always correct.
In some cases it was writing one block to the file which makes
it not 100% sparse.
