chromeos: Reverse FMAP signature constant to avoid having it in .rodata

Even though coreboot always hardcodes the FMAP offset, the same is not
possible for all other tools that manipulate ROM images. Some need to
manually find the FMAP by searching for it's magic number (ASCII
"__FMAP__"). If we do something like 'memcmp(fmap_buffer, "__FMAP__",
...) in coreboot code, it has the unfortunate side effect that the
compiler will output that very same magic number as a constant in the
.rodata section to compare against. Other tools may mistake this for the
"real" FMAP location and get confused.

This patch reverses the constant defined in coreboot and changes the
only use of it correspondingly. It is not impossible but extremely
unlikely (at the current state of the art) that any compiler would be
clever enough to understand this pattern and optimize it back to a
straight memcmp() (GCC 4.9 definitely doesn't), so it should solve the
problem at least for another few years/decades.

BRANCH=veyron
BUG=chromium:447051
TEST=Made sure the new binaries actually contain "__PAMF__" in their
.rodata. Booted Pinky. Independently corrupted both the first and the
last byte of the FMAP signature with a hex editor and confirmed that
signature check fails in both cases.
