When updating firmware, we may need to preserve some sections like VPD,
calibration data, ... etc. The logic can be hard-coded in updater as a
list of known names, but a better solution is to have that directly
declared inside FMAP area flags.
To do that, the first step is to apply the changes in flash map
(http://crosreview.com/1493767). A new FMAP_AREA_PRESERVE is now
defined and will be set in future with new syntax in FMD parser.
