Bug Description

Some firmware define H_EC object, this cause false alarm on fwts method tests.
Test 169 of 195: Test _EC (EC Offset Query).
FAILED [CRITICAL] AETtype: Test 169, Detected error 'Type' when evaluating
'\_SB_.PCI0.SBRG.H_EC'.

from ACPI spec,
ASL compiler pads a name shorter than 4 characters, it is done so with
trailing underscores (‘_’).

So fwts method should test with "_EC_".
