lpc: ACPI query-next-event drops masked events

Previously, you could use EC_CMD_ACPI_QUERY_EVENT to read events that
were masked off (that is, events which would not generate SCI/SMI/wake
signals).  The handlers for those signals on the host would still act
on the masked-off events - for example, causing unwanted power button
keypresses/releases.

Now, EC_CMD_ACPI_QUERY_EVENT will only return events which are unmasked.

This does not affect storing of events at event generation time.
Events are still queued; they won't be dropped until the host attempts
to read the next event.  This gives the host a chance to set a mask
later in boot (but before querying any events) to capture events which
happened early in the boot process.

BUG=chrome-os-partner:26574
BRANCH=rambi
TEST=At EC console, type 'hostevent set 0x80' but don't press enter.
     Hold down the power button; UI starts fading to white.
     Press enter at the EC console to issue the hostevent command.
     System should continue shutting down, not fade back as if the
     power button were released.
