The firmware for Wave1 chips was updated to the latest release
10.2.4-1.0-00047 at the end of 2019 (commit 513d70cc50b).
Package firmware for these chips from linux-firmware.
This avoids downloading the ath10k-firmware repository.

Release notes for 017:
Wave-1:
* March 19, 2020: Fix problem where power-save was not enabled when going off-channel to scan.
The problem was a boolean logic inversion in the chmgr code, a regression I introduced
a long time ago.
* March 19, 2020: When scanning only on current working channel, do not bother with disable/enable
powersave. This should make an on-channel scan less obtrusive than it was previously.
* March 23, 2020: Fix channel-mgr use-after-free problem that caused crashes in some cases. The crash
was exacerbated by recent power-save changes.
* March 23, 2020: Fix station-mode power-save related crash: backported the fix from 10.2 QCA firmware.
* March 23, 2020: Attempt to better clean up power-save objects and state, especially in station mode.
Release notes for 016:
Wave-1 changes, some debugging code for a crash someone reported, plus:
* February 28, 2020: Fix custom-tx path when sending in 0x0 for rate-code. Have tries == 0 mean
one try but NO-ACK (similar to how wave-2 does it).
wave-2:
* Fixed some long-ago regressions related to powersave and/or multicast. Maybe fix some
additional multicast and/or tx-scheduling bugs.

(cherry picked from commit 84f4a783c6)
This supports better per-chain noise floor reporting, which in turn allows for
better RSSI reporting in the driver.
Wave-2 fixes a long-standing rate-ctrl problem when connected to xbox (and probably other devices).
Wave-2 has fix for crash likely related to rekeying.
Wave-1 has some debugging code added where a user reported a crash.

(cherry picked from commit 1862263883)
The release notes since last time for wave-1:
* No changes to wave-1, but I make a version .014 copy anyway to keep
the makefile in sync.
The release notes since last time for wave-2:
* December 16, 2019: Wave-2 has a fix to make setting txpower work
better. Before setting the power was ignored at
least some of the time (it also appeared to work
mostly, so I guess it was being correctly set in
other ways).
