[oe] linux-firmware

[Sander van Grieken]

Hi,

Currently, linux-firmware produces one big package with all binary
firmware files installed. It would be benificial , especially for
devices with a very small rootfs, to install only a subset of the entire
collection. Some effort has been done to split off separate packages,
but it's not clear what the preferred naming should be.

- Should it follow the kernel-module-* naming, e.g.
kernel-module-ath9k-htc would need linux-firmware-ath9k-htc?
- Or should it follow the firmware file naming, e.g. linux-firmware-htc-7010
- Or maybe have a bit larger packages and simply split by vendor, e.g.
linux-firmware-atheros
- How and if to package the license file

Thoughts?
