Makefile: Make vboot_fw.a a .PHONY target
vboot_fw.a is built via a sub-invocation of make, but make is not able
to track dependencies between different invocations. That means the
toplevel make assumes that the vboot_fw.a target depends only on the
dependencies explicitly listed in coreboot's Makefile (only config.h in
this case), and thus assumes that if config.h didn't change it does not
need to rebuild the library. This breaks incremental builds when files
inside the vboot repository change.
This patch marks the target as .PHONY so that it will always be rebuilt.
The vboot Makefile's own dependency tracking will then ensure that on an
incremental build we only rebuild the vboot sources that actually
changed, so if nothing changed this will just add a simple and quick
$(AR) call.
