Move some structs into the appropriate header to be visible. Add new fields to structs and enums. Remove arguments from two functions (one function currently unused by drivers in the tree, for the other the argument was unused). Adjust the iwlwifi accordingly. This is in preparation for new driver versions to allow a smooth transition. Sponsored by: The FreeBSD Foundation (cherry picked from commit e6010da63903cc6d9aac0077ab861cfd6bae2aa7)
So far we have not compiled wow.c given we do not enable CONFIG_PM yet. Make the necessary file local adjustments to make the file compile once further changes in LinuxKPI 802.11 code are comitted.

Given we currently do not ompile the file by default make it compile again after the last vendor import. Sponsored by: The FreeBSD Foundation (cherry picked from commit 52a43041d2a864961f0a1a109a7a7c4c6ebed918)
Following the example of rtw88 and rtw89 only ship iwlwifi firmware from ports/packages. Users are asked to run fwget(8) to install the firmware needed for their system or build it from ports (see also UPDATING). This is the end of a long story adding wireless support to fwget(8), migrating the firmware for multiple branches into ports, splitting them up into flavors, and updating some install media and the installer to provide firmware. The overall amount for new firmware amongst all drivers would have added more than 100M of binary blobs to src.git for the first import, ignoring future updates which (along with some duplication between multiple drivers) was considered too much. While maintenance within the src tree certainly would have been easier in the longer term this seems to be the better solution and I would like to thank everyone who helped along the path to get there. The iwlwififw.4 man page is to stay (for now) and will likely point at the appropriate firmware package flavor in the future as well so people may find it easier to transition. In the long term this information is likely not needed anymore.

Apply a temporary fix to FreeBSD only to allow AX101 to proceed further. While this fix results in a debug error message if firmware debugging is on we currently take this for the version we have. A proper fix will eventually show up in future versions of iwlwifi.

A FreeBSD specific comment asked people to report to a PR if they see this. By now we got enough feedback and also left this in a release. Simply point to the PR so people can check the status but not longer ask to submit a report to the PR.

Bring in code to call into rs-fw.c functionality for firmware supported rate select. Anything before AX200 (firmware matching iwlwiif-[0-9]*.ucode) will still need further implementation, and so does iwl_mvm_rs_tx_status(). These bits marked with compat.linuxkpi.80211.debug TODO()s for now. Implement some lindebugfs bits to gather more statistical information.

If people like me having multiple cards in the same system creating the debugfs dirctory leads to a panic upon attaching the 2nd card due to the duplicate name. Rather than using the hard coded driver name, use the device name (e.g., rtw880, rtw881, rtw882). This solves two issues: it avoids the duplicate name and we get individual debugging/statistic information for each card.
