    elog: Fix regression that caused elog to omit "System boot" event
    
    CL:243671 moved the initialization of elog_initialized around, which is
    now unfortunately so late that the ELOG_TYPE_BOOT event gets omitted
    because the code believes the log to be broken at that time. Good thing
    we now have a FAFT test for these things that I had of course been too
    lazy to run. -.-
    
    The real reason for moving that line was to put it after any point in
    elog_init() that could still error out. The problem is that we might add
    the "cleared" event before we try to shrink (which can fail and cause an
    error)... but those two things cannot happen at the same time, so it
    should be okay to flip them around and mark the elog as initialized in
    between.
    
    BRANCH=none
    BUG=chrome-os-partner:35940
    TEST=Ran firmware_EventLog on a Pinky, manually confirmed that I once
    again get "System boot" events.
