ARM: Put the ROM stage into the image before other bits.
On ARM, there's frequently some firmware built into the SOC which runs first and which loads other firmware like Coreboot from some other media. To prevent the bootblock from having to know how to find and load the ROM stage from what may be a complicated source (sd card, netbooting, etc.), we can put the ROM stage immediately after the bootblock and ensure that they're both loaded at the same time. This change adjusts the Makefile.inc for ARM so that the ROM stage is put into the image before any other files so that we know it comes first. This changes the behavior of the CONFIG_UPDATE_IMAGE config option used by abuild, although it's not entirely clear whether that's still used.
