AS reported by ovf on IRC, some of the firmwares we install are in fact
symlinks to some other files.
Install those files as well, and document the existing symlinks.

The firmwares to use for iwlwifi 3160/7260 are different, depending on which
version of the Linux kernel is being used:
- rev. 7 is for linux 3.10 through 3.12 (both included)
- rev. 8 is for linux 3.13 onward
Add a config choice to select the appropriate version.
(See cset a0a6eeb in the linux-firmware repository for the details.)

A bunch of new WiFi firmwares has been added, some have been updated.
Not limited to WiFi, but other firmwares are of less interest to
Buildroot for now (eg. radeon, myri10ge...).
Fixups in WHENCE file (the all-licenses file).

Currently, the license files for the many firmware files are installed
in the target, alongside the firmware files, and are not available to the
legal-info infrastructture.
This patch separates the license files from the firmware files, and makes
them available to the legal-info infrastructure, so they get installed
with all the other license files.
Since most firmware files are proprietary (at least those we currently
install), we just have a single license definition. When we later support
other firmwares that have an OSS license, those can add their own
licensing information on a case-by-case basis.

Bump version to get a few new firmware files for some WiFi adapters.
In the rtl81xx familly, it's hard to differentiate each members: I have
a USB stick that identifies itself as TRL8188CUS, but is handled by the
rtl8192ce driver. So I moved all of rtl81xx firmwares under the same
option to avoid confusion.
It will be the responsibility of the user to eventually get rid of
unwanted firmware files in a post-build script, if needed.
Ditto for rtl87xx.

There are three firmware files that can be installed, each for
different devices.
For example, the DIB0700 firmware can be used by quite a few DVB
USB sticks based on this chipset (I know of at least two of them).

Reorganise the sub-menus for the linux-firmware package, so it is easier
to add new categories of firmwares to install (coming in a future patch).
Remove the per-chipco sub-menus, as all entries have the chipco name in
its prompt (except for TI, which is added).

ar9271.fw is the old convention for the firmware.
Starting with kernel 3.0 the new convention is htc_9271.fw which is a
newer version of the firmware so symlinking won't do it and there are no
guarantees that the newer firmware will work with the older driver
either.
