[autotest] Add a test for updating DUT RW firmware.
This adds a test that runs chromeos-firmwareupdate with 'autoupdate'
mode, in order to update firmware on a DUT target.
BUG=chromium:214729
TEST=`atest job create` for the test in a local instance

+ Update RW firmware in the target DUT.
+
+ In production, consumer devices periodically update their read/write
+ firmware during auto-update cycles. This happens when the firmware
+ bundled with a newly update image is different from the firmware
+ currently installed on the device.
+
+ In the test lab, this step is suppressed, to prevent devices from
+ inadvertently updating to a new firmware version as a consequence of
+ installing a new Chrome OS build for testing. In particular,
+ because the firmware is updated whenever the bundled firmware is
+ _different_, and not merely _more recent_, suppressing the update
+ prevents unexpectedly downgrading the firmware.
+
+ Nonetheless, we sometimes want more recent firmware on a DUT than
+ the image that was delivered from the factory. This test allows
+ updating the firmware to the installed firmware bundle, using the
+ same procedure as is used during autoupdate.
