gooftool: add --clear_gbb_flags command
Shipping devices should have all flags in GBB header cleared.
The clear_gbb_flags needs to read GBB section from flashrom, causing 2 seconds
of execution time in each --finalize or --clear_gbb_flags call (and more if we
need to update GBB header).
Although the hash check in verify_hwid should ensure GBB data is properly
written, since this is a high risk security item, we currently enforce always
testing GBB hedader in each --finalize call. This may be improved in future.

TEST=# setup a BIOS with non-zero flags
flashrom -r bios.bin
gbb_utility -s --flags=3 bios.bin
flashrom -i GBB -w bios.bin
# check bios flags
flashrom -r bios.bin
gbb_utility --flags bios.bin # see 3
# execute gooftool
gooftool --clear_gbb_flags
# check bios flags
flashrom -r bios.bin
gbb_utility --flags bios.bin # see 0
