Add const keyword to get_erase_size declaration

Add const to function declaration. Const objects cannot access const safe functions, a compiler error is thrown if one tries to do so. This helps ensure that the object calling the method will not be modified. This is espescially desirable in functions where all we need to do is query existing data and not make any alterations.
