Updates the 88W8964 firmware used in the Linksys WRT3200ACM and WRT32X
[v9.3.2.6 -> v9.3.2.12]
Removes 0c43219 ("mwlwifi: Fix loading with backports v5.3")
as it has been merged upstream.
Unfortunately, there is a bug wherein Kaloz's repo, the version
detection mechanism for fixing vendor commands doesn't work.
It pulls in the Linux kernel version, which as of this time is
"4.14.y" or "4.19.y"
However, the proper behaviour is that it should pull in the mac80211
backports version which as of now is "5.4.27"
The included patch works around this using a backports define found
only on versions >5.3, "VENDOR_CMD_RAW_DATA".

Increase MAX_WAIT_FW_COMPLETE_ITERATIONS to 10000 as before commit
e5e0700 to prevent timeout as reported here: #308 (Original OP issue is
probably not related though as his post preceeds commit e5e0700).

As each mvebu device only uses one of the firmwares provided by mwlwifi
package, it makes sense to put them in separate packages and only install
the one that is needed.
Current mwlwifi version's firmware sizes and usages by devices:
88W8864.bin 118776 caiman, mamba, cobra, shelby
88W8897.bin 489932 (none)
88W8964.bin 449420 rango
Changes by this commit:
* indicate in title that mwlwifi also is driver for 88W8897 and 88W8964
* remove mwlwifi package's firmware installation rules
* add 3 new individual firmware packages (all depends on kmod-mwlwifi):
- mwlwifi-firmware-88w8864
- mwlwifi-firmware-88w8897
- mwlwifi-firmware-88w8964
* add firmware package to mvebu devices' DEVICE_PACKAGES accordingly

Using PKG_SOURCE_DATE instead of PKG_VERSION will make the build system
generate the version based on the date and the git hash. This way the
tar file name changes when the git hash changes and this avoids problems
when someone forgets to change the version, but changes the git hash.

Apearently we need to ensure mwlwifi loads before mwifiex on
the WRT3200ACM, else mwifiex will claim the wifi.
Fix this by reverting to AutoLoad, but keep the removal of
mac80211 line.
This partially reverts commit 471d5dc6e3.
