Subject: [PATCH v5 4/7] net: devlink: add DEVLINK_INFO_VERSION_GENERIC_FW_BOOTLOADER

As discussed in [1], abbreviating the bootloader to "bl" might not be
well understood. Instead, a bootloader technically being a firmware,
name it "fw.bootloader".

Add a new macro to devlink.h to formalize this new info attribute name
and update the documentation.

This was initially sent as a standalone patch here:

  https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20221129031406.3849872-1-mailhol.vincent@wanadoo.fr/

Merging it to this series so that it is both added and used.
