Summary

For all:

  • harmonize Copyright/license section according to style.9 and used SPDX only.
  • mention that the current generation of the driver is based on Linux version 7.0.
  • make linuxkpi.4 and linuxkpi_wlan.4 .Xr as the man pages do exist these days.

iwlwifi: update the card/chipset names supported (while we still can)
iwlwififw: leave a comment only that we can no longer update the

man page and it will be removed in the future.
