cbfstool: Remove location pointer from parse_elf_to_stage()

The *location argument to parse_elf_to_stage() is a relic from code all
the way back to 2009 where this function was still used to parse XIP
stages. Nowadays we have a separate parse_elf_to_xip_stage() for that,
so there is no need to heed XIP concerns here. Having a pointer to
represent the location in flash is absolutely irrelevant to a non-XIP
stage, and it is used incorrectly -- we just get lucky that no code path
in cbfstool can currently lead to that value being anything other than
0, otherwise the adjustment of data_start to be no lower than *location
could easily screw things up. This patch removes it.
