add extracting and injecting VPD, remove warning at the bottom

MrChromebox commented 2 weeks ago

looks good, but we'd want to preserve the HWID text file in the COREBOOT CBFS as well, if it exists

I will add in serial number, RW_MRC_CACHE, and SMMSTORE as well.

the serial # is stored in the VPD on ChromeOS devices. I'm not sure what boards use serial.txt in CBFS other than maybe Purism ones? Persisting MRC_CACHE and SMMSTORE aren't non-recoverable the way the HWID is, so that's what I'm concerned about mostly

Should we add HWID into the unbricking section as well?
