fmap: Add FMAP_AREA_PRESERVE
When updating firmware, we may need to preserve some sections like VPD, calibration data, ... etc. The logic can be hard-coded in updater as a list of known names, but a better solution is to have that directly declared inside FMAP area flags. To do that, the first step is to apply the changes in flash map (http://crosreview.com/1493767). A new FMAP_AREA_PRESERVE is now defined and will be set in future with new syntax in FMD parser. BUG=chromium:936768 TEST=make; boots an x86 image.
