[flashrom] [PATCH] layout: Verify layout entries before building a new image using them.

This fixes a SEGFAULT if a layout entry is included that addresses memory
outside the current chip's address range.

Before continuing with the other layout patches, I'd like to fix this
issue (and copy the patch that fixes this also to the .7 stable branch).

The macros are open for discussion not only regarding naming...
e.g. it might be easier to declare a macro that provides the full printf
format specification for the address, '0x06" PRIx32 "' to make the
resulting code more readable.
