Removed ChipType_t dependency in HardwareRegister

This dependency defeated the purpose of the flyweights because a
register that does not differ between chip model/EC would end up having
an instance for each model/EC. The explodes the memory used for these
objects.

This does expose a problem where someone may try to access a register
that does not exist for a specific chip type. However, they should be
getting the register objects from the IsolationChip class for the
specific chip type anyway. Therefore, the exposure is minimal compared
to the memory savings.
