[coreboot] [PATCH] flashrom: Check the JEDEC vendor ID for correct parity

Check the JEDEC vendor ID for correct parity. Flash chips which can be
detected by JEDEC probe routines all have vendor IDs with correct
parity. Use a parity check as additional hint whether a vendor ID makes
sense.
Note: Device IDs have no parity requirements whatsoever.
