    google/urara: retrieve board ID from a CBFS file
    
    Concerto board does not have the means of detecting the identity of
    the device it is controlling. But it is very beneficial to be able to
    use the same firmware image on Concerto boards running different
    devices.
    
    The suggested solution is to keep the device identity as a string in a
    raw CBFS file called 'board_id'.
    
    With this patch coreboot maintains a table of possible board name
    strings and their matching board IDs.
    
    BRANCH=none
    BUG=chrome-os-partner:37593
    TEST=verified that without the board id file addition the default
        Board ID of zero is used. Adding the file as follows:
    
          echo -n 'concerto' > /tmp/bid
          cbfstool /build/urara/firmware/image.serial.bin  add -f /tmp/bid  \
               -t raw -n 'board_id'
    
        results in firmware reporting board ID setting of 1.
    
    board_id: failed to locate CBFS file board_id
    board_id: name urara, ID 0
