[SLOF] [PATCH v2 2/4] romfs/tools: Silence GCC 8.1 compiler warning with FLASHFS_MAGIC

GCC 8.1 introduce some new warnings which affect create_crc.c. One of
them is:

create_crc.c: In function ‘createHeaderImage’:
create_crc.c:110:2: warning: ‘strncpy’ output truncated before terminating nul
 copying 8 bytes from a string of the same length [-Wstringop-truncation]
  strncpy(uHeader.stHeader.magic, FLASHFS_MAGIC, 8);
  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Initialize the header struct statically here instead to silence the warning.
