net/wifi-firmware-iwlwifi-kmod: update firmware to 20251021

[bz]

Summary

Intel firmware for BE200 ("bz" chipsets) requires more modern firmware
than we provide. Update the Intel iwlwifi firmware to the latest tree
which brings a few changes:
(1) on linux-firmware.git the firmware got moved into a subdirectory

so we need to strip that path before installing as the driver
still expects the firmware in the top-level directory.

(2) the "bz" firmware gets bumped to 101, we keep the old version for

14.3-R around as well.

(3) while the other files keep their revisions, Intel may have updated

them with rebuilds.  This is hard to discover given not only the
hashes but also the paths have changed in distinfo.

After some chat with people it seems that the flavors will not fly for newer versions anymore at all.
The driver has a lot less combinations hard-coded and it'll be hard for us for fwget(8) to get any proper mappings from PCI ID to firmware.
"bz" will likely just become "mld" and the "mvm" parts will stay as-are and only be maintained manually in case anything will be found missing or not working.

Also extracting the combinations from the driver sounds no longer ideal; it seems the best we can do is to take everything (avail) as listed in the WHENCE file and try our best with PCI IDs then.

[bz]

After some discussion with someone, we now generate the firmware list
from the WHENCE file in linux-firmware.git given the driver firmware
name creation is too dynamic. This adds some extra firmware files we
did not have before. See files/extract-fw-list.sh.

[bz]

Update comment in Makefile as to where the firmware list gets generated from now.

There is a typo in firmware.

Are you indexing fwpnvm correctly here? I see you are indexing it as fwpnvm[flav,name] above.

Nit.

It's the iwlwifi mvm & mld drivers (iwlwifi these days consists of 3 drivers: mvm, mld, and dvm; the latter is GPL and matches our iwn roughly and we do not deal with it).

@jrm what would be the better spelling/grammer in this case?

[bz]

Fix type.
There is no need to sort pnvm files.
Update pkg-decr to also mention iwx(4).

There is actually no need to sort them at all so this part is gone.

I've now settled for a different two-liner which also mentions iwx(4) and put mvm/mld in []

[bz]

ARG arc. I'll push another one in a minute; this time it diffed against main again and not against its parent.

[bz]

Hopefully only the changes of this revision this time.

[jrm]

I don't see any issues. I also ran it through poudriere again, and everything looked good.
