mrc_cache: Update metadata signature

CB:67670 recently changed the format of the MRC metadata header, but
left the signature the same. That kinda defeats the purpose of having a
signature which is to make a data structure recognizable (because now
the same signature can refer to two different structures that cannot be
otherwise distinguished). While we don't know of any use case where
anything other than coreboot currently parses this data structure (other
than a ChromeOS-internal utility that's about to be removed), it's
probably better to still switch to a different signature for the new
header format just to stay on the safe side (e.g. if we ever need to
start parsing this somewhere else in the future).

CB:67670 only landed a week ago so hopefully the old signature + new
format variant hasn't had much time to escape into the wild yet.
