Chromium auto-update hotfix

This release fixes an oversight in v1.2 where the alternate install method for Chromium left the package susceptible to auto-updating, which in turn lead to instability of the browser.

If you have a working v1.2 installation and don't want to re-flash the image, you can achieve the same effect manually with:

sudo apt-mark hold chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra chromium-browser chromium-browser-l10n
