    Update RW firmware in the target DUT.

    In production, consumer devices periodically update their read/write
    firmware during auto-update cycles.  This happens when the firmware
    bundled with a newly update image is different from the firmware
    currently installed on the device.

    In the test lab, this step is suppressed, to prevent devices from
    inadvertently updating to a new firmware version as a consequence of
    installing a new Chrome OS build for testing.  In particular,
    because the firmware is updated whenever the bundled firmware is
    _different_, and not merely _more recent_, suppressing the update
    prevents unexpectedly downgrading the firmware.

    Nonetheless, we sometimes want more recent firmware on a DUT than
    the image that was delivered from the factory.  This test allows
    updating the firmware to the installed firmware bundle, using the
    same procedure as is used during autoupdate.
