Subject: [PATCH] rpi-eeprom-update: Remove dependency on vl805

The vl805 utility is not available for aarch64 and is deprecated
because it's only required for USE_FLASHROM.

Remove the dependency check so that it can be removed from the package.

The USE_FLASHROM code will be removed at a later date once the
self-update mechanism in the bootloader EEPROM is released.
