mwifiex: Select firmware based on strapping
Some WiFi/Bluetooth modules might have different host connection options, allowing to either use SDIO for both WiFi and Bluetooth, or SDIO for WiFi and UART for Bluetooth. It is possible to detect whether a module has SDIO-SDIO or SDIO-UART connection by reading its host strap register. This change introduces a way to automatically select appropriate firmware depending of the connection method, and removes a need of symlinking or overwriting the original firmware file with a required one. Host strap register used in this commit comes from the NXP driver [1] hosted at Code Aurora.
