Subject: [PATCH] flashrom.c: Reorder list of options to test

If a chip is unknown the user is asked to test and report the result to the mailing list. Having `-VE` listed as the last option can result in an unbootable system for users not knowing what the command does, since rebooting the system after that command is fatal since the flash chip is empty. [1]

Reorder the options as a quick fix to prevent that in the future as suggested by idwer on #flashrom.
