blobutil/inject: use x86 top-aligned mrc offset
the old code was specifing an absolute offset for
insertion of mrc.bin - cbfstool interprets anything
above 0x80000000 as top-aligned memory address in
x86, and anything below as an obsolute offset in
the flash, like with the old number
where a top-aligned address is provided to cbfstool,
the absolute position is calculated for the flash,
and cbfstool inserts it in the correct rom location
the benefit of this change is that the absolute
offset is now calculated automatically, which means
that the code will be correct even if the flash
size changes. for example, if 16MB flash is used
whereas 12MB is currently the default an support
haswell hardware
coreboot does not provide anything readably like
Kconfig, for extracting this value. it's baked
into the source code of coreboot, so you have to
find it. the correct location is hardcoded for
each platform, and always the same on each platform,
regardless of mainboard
