Subject: [PATCH 29/28] firmware: Add 'firmware_install' make target

This installs all the in-kernel-tree firmware into $(INSTALL_FW_PATH),
which defaults to $(objtree)/usr/lib/firmware and is intended end up
in /lib/firmware for udev to find the files.

This, in conjunction with the builtin-firmware support, makes it simple
for drivers with associated firmware to move over to request_firmware()
and give the user a choice of whether to have it built in to the kernel
image or loaded separately from userspace.

As with kernel header installation for userspace, it intentionally pays
no attention to configuration variables -- it installs _all_ available
firmware blobs, unconditionally.
