rtw88: Add firmware v52.14.0 for RTL8812AU
This file contains the firmware for RTL8812AU and was extracted from
the vendor driver v5.13.6-23-g232107d9b.20210820 from
https://github.com/morrownr/8812au-20210820
ath11k: move WCN6750 firmware to the device-specific subdir
As demonstrated by the inability to use existing WCN6750 firmware on
QCM6490 / QCS6490 devices, such firmware files are device-specific. As a
preparation to adding more device-specific firmware, move existing
firmware to the sc7280/ subdir, squashing it in proceess. Squashing it
simplifies loading (as it requires just a single file access / userspace
call) and also it requires just a single compatibility symlink instead
of ten.

Makefile: error out of 'install' if COPYOPTS is set
Since https://gitlab.com/kernel-firmware/linux-firmware/-/merge_requests/319
and https://gitlab.com/kernel-firmware/linux-firmware/-/merge_requests/331 ,
doing `make COPYOPTS="blahblah" install` does not fail, but does
not do what it did before. This is a surprising and possibly
undesired result (in Fedora, it led to our firmware suddenly
taking up 500MB more space on disk, and that led to a bunch of
live image builds failing).
To make the change more apparent, let's just fail out with an
explanatory message if invoked with COPYOPTS set.

check_whence.py: skip some validation if git ls-files fails
Recently we started running check_whence.py to validate WHENCE before
installing files with copy-firmware.sh. It did not consider the fact
that people may be using the distribution tarball, which lacks the
relevant git metadata.
Throw a warning and skip the relevant validation.

The current version is copied from latest Jetson Linux BSP and it's for
P3310 (TX2) module. While both TX1 and TX2 have same wireless chip,
possibly the SDIO module slightly differ and both have different NVRAM
files provided in separate BSP archives. Although TX1 module wireless
inteface can be brought up with TX2 NVRAM file, the performance is
slightly degraded, simple download test yielded extra 4MiB/s with proper
NVRAM file. Thus, replace it with proper file from R32.7.5 BSP, while
also droping commented-out values, since those are not parsed by the
driver.

Remove the dummy and unused configure file. Glancing across distributions (Alpine, Arch,

copy-firmware.sh: remove no longer reachable test -L

copy-firmware.sh: call ./check_whence.py before parsing the file
Currently ./check_whence.py is used when submitting new firmware, while
copy-firmware.sh when the firmware is to be consumed.
Since the latter does (very little) validation, having a malformed WHENCE file
can lead to all sorted of problems. From the obvious, where it errors out, to
more serious one where it overwrites or executes something it should not have.
Just call check_whence.py and error out. It takes 0.2s on my 5 year old
mid-range laptop, so the overhead is negligible.

copy-firmware.sh: reset and consistently handle destdir
Currently we don't reset/override the destdir variable, so we end up inheriting
whatever the caller's environment has for it. While it may work, it's not
particularly consistent (be that within the script or other tools) nor is it
obvious.
While in here, ensure we handle the variable with test -z/-n instead of varying
other constructs.

The commit effectively added accidental command injection, while it was aiming
to control the compression flags.
In practise you'd want to use ZSTD_CLEVEL and ZSTD_NBTHREADS for zstd. As
documented in zstd(1) it allows for up-to level 19, which is fine since the
kernel does not support higher levels.
Arch, Alpine and likely other distributions have been using this approach
since day one.
The other compressors like xz have equivalent.

copy-firmware.sh: flesh out and fix dedup-firmware.sh
Flesh out the de-duplication logic in separate script. The copy-firmware.sh is
already complex enough and de-duplication doesn't really fit in there.
In the process we migrate away from the open-coded `ln --relative`. We also
avoid touching symlinks, which are not created by rdfind. Otherwise we end up
"fixing" the folder to folder symlinks (created earlier in the process) and
things explode.
As result we also get a few bonuses:
- the COPYOPTS shell injection is gone - the variable was never used
- people can dedup as separate step if/when they choose to do so
Aside: based on the noise in git log and around distros ... I'm wondering if
having the de-duplication as opt-in, would have been better. Is it too late to
change or the ship has sailed?

also changes the leafs. Where the latter may be undesired and in some
