Raspberry Pi hardware requires firmware that supersedes or is not
present in the standard linux-firmware distribution. These files are
maintained in the RPi-Distro project on github.
Several attempts have been made to reconcile conflicts between what's in
linux-firmware and what the hardware needs. The existing approach is
functional but not maintainable since it combines material from three
repositories into a single package that claims to be linux-firmware.
Remove the appends that change the content of linux-firmware for rpi
hardware. Add two new recipes that follow the RPi-Distro repositories:
* firmware-nonfree which forked from linux-firmware and replaces
content is provided as linux-firmware-rpidistro;
* bluez-firmware which forked from (very old) bluez and adds content is
provided as bluez-firmware-rpidistro.
The packages are named to make clear that these come from RPi-Distro,
rather than generic sources. Licensing attempts to record the state of
licensing as documented in RPi-Distro.
Resolves: #298

The attempt to Raspbian updated firmware blobs in packages separate from
linux-firmware introduced unresolvable conflicts with the standard
linux-firmware roll-up package. Revert to using an augmented
linux-firmware recipe that overrides and adds firmware from two Raspbian
repositories that have up-to-date images.

* KERNEL_DEFCONFIG variable isn't used anywhere since this commit:
https://github.com/agherzan/meta-raspberrypi/commit/88478c38744e6a57361b438095fee1d808690a00
* it was replaced with KBUILD_DEFCONFIG:
recipes-kernel/linux/linux-raspberrypi.inc:KBUILD_DEFCONFIG_raspberrypi0-wifi ?= "bcmrpi_defconfig"
recipes-kernel/linux/linux-raspberrypi.inc:KBUILD_DEFCONFIG_raspberrypi ?= "bcmrpi_defconfig"
recipes-kernel/linux/linux-raspberrypi.inc:KBUILD_DEFCONFIG_raspberrypi2 ?= "bcm2709_defconfig"
recipes-kernel/linux/linux-raspberrypi.inc:KBUILD_DEFCONFIG_raspberrypi3 ?= "bcm2709_defconfig"
recipes-kernel/linux/linux-raspberrypi.inc:KBUILD_DEFCONFIG_raspberrypi3-64 ?= "bcmrpi3_defconfig"

As well make all the variables assigned in a way that they can be
overwritten so we can give maximum flexibility to distros.
