libpldmresponder getBiosTable: delete bios tables

This commit deletes all the three persistent bios tables before
serving a request to getBIOSTable for type "string". This is done
to make the BIOS tables consistent with the corresponding dbus property
values which might have changed after the tables are constructed and
sent over to Host.
