ath10k: add board 2 API support
QCA6174 needs different board files based on board type. To make it easier to distribute multiple board files and automatically choose correct board file create a simple TLV file format following the same principles as with FW IEs. The file is named board-2.bin and contain multiple board files. Each board file then can have multiple names. ath10k searches for file board-N.bin (where N is the interface version number for the board file, just like we for firmware files) in /lib/firmware/*, for example for qca99x0 it will try to find it here: /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA99X0/hw2.0/board-2.bin If ath10k doesn't find board-2.bin then it will fallback to the old board.bin file. This patch adds a simple name scheme using pci device id which for now will be used by qca6174: bus=%s,vendor=%04x,device=%04x,subsystem-vendor=%04x,subsystem-device=%04x This removes the old method of having subsystem ids in ar->spec_board_id and using that in the board file name.
