2 improvements for the Chromebook handling in
acpi_video_get_backlight_type():
1. Also check for the "GOOG000C" ACPI HID used on some models
2. Move the Chromebook check to above the ACPI-video check normally
Chromebooks don't have ACPI video backlight support, but when
flashed with upstream coreboot builds they may have ACPI video
backlight support, but native should still be used/preferred then.
