    atkbdc: Add additional heurstic for Chromebook keyboards
    
    It turns out that that heurstic used to determine if we have a Google
    coreboot, and thus have the i8042 emulation bugs, is incorrect. At least
    one Acer "Peppy" Chromebook has an issue because Acer space'd out the
    smbios.bios.version string we're using as part of the heuristic. So, if
    the version starts with a space, then enable the workarounds if the
    smbios.bios.reldate is 2018 or earlier. While not perfect, it should be
    a reasonable dividing line and still allow newer core boot-based
    machines that aren't Chromebooks to not have the workaround.
