rtw88/rtw89: remove local firmware.
Remove firmware from src/ in favor of the ports/packages and fwget(8). This will allow us to shrink the size of src (and installed modules). Update the rtw88 man page to reflect the change. MFC after: 20 days X-MFC: will see about 14/13

- rtw88 firmware
-================
-
-This repository contains firmware images supported by Realtek's wireless
-driver rtw88. And some of the devices run with more than one firmware
-file. Basically, a "normal" firmware is necessary to be downloaded to
-the device.
-And another is called "wowlan" firmware, it should be loaded when a
-device is going to suspend. Which means driver will "re-download/swap"
-the firmware image. The wowlan firmware contains wake up functions that
-can recognize specific events and send a wake up signal to device if
-needed, and the system will resume to running state. During resume,
-driver will then swap the normal firmware back, return to running state.
-
-If any distros or platforms do not require wowlan feature, they can
-_only_ pick the normal firmware. And everything still works fine,
-except that the device cannot be waken from the wireless NICs.
-
-Currently supported devices with corresponding firmwares:

- These firmware should be put under /lib/firmware/rtw88/
- And note that the rtw88 driver is able to support wake-on-wireless LAN
- for RTL8822C devices, after kernel v5.6+. So, make sure the firmware
- rtw88/rtw8822c_wow_fw.bin is also packed, otherwise the firmware load
- fail could be a problem.
- Although RTL8723D devices are 802.11n device, they are also supported
- by rtw88 because the hardware arch is similar.
