tbbr: Use constant-time bcmp() to compare hashes

Browse Source 
To avoid timing side-channel attacks, it is needed to use a constant
time memory comparison function when comparing hashes. The affected
code only cheks for equality so it isn't needed to use any variant of
memcmp(), bcmp() is enough.

Also, timingsafe_bcmp() is as fast as memcmp() when the two compared
regions are equal, so this change incurrs no performance hit in said
case. In case they are unequal, the boot sequence wouldn't continue as
normal, so performance is not an issue.
