[R4iGold only?] cmdGetHWRevision returns chipid instead of hwrev

This line from flashcart_core's r4igold.cpp seems to return chipid instead of hwrev, making it so that it would fail this switch statement, and therefore making it say "Flashcart setup failed!" and refuse to proceed. If you add a new case that matches the "hwrev" (really it's the chipid), init will succeed and then read/inject commands will work.

Here's the log it prints out:
[INFO]: R4iGold: Init [NOTICE]: R4iGold: HW Revision = 00000fc2 [NOTICE]: R4iGold: HW Type = a79bca95

I do not know how to go about to fix this issue, or if it's even something that I can fix (flashcart_core issue?)

Apparently in the old ds_ntrboot_flasher, it would only suceed if you manually ejected and reinserted the flashcart to do a force reset (hence, only in the non _dsi flasher). In _dsi mode it wouldn't work at all, similar to this issue. This is one of the problems that stems from _dsi vs non-_dsi
