net/wifi-firmware-*: use metaport for "base" and switch to Makefile.inc
Rename the wifi-firmware-base to wifi-firmware-kmod (similar to
gpu-firmware-mod). The former was never build so technically it
is no move. Make the new subdir a metaport including all
wireless firmware.
Move the old Makefile to Makefile.inc and adjust the child ports
accordingly.
This solves two problems: (1) the base port is now buildable and (2)
there is a single port to depend on to add all the needed firmware
files to, e.g., put on a release media.

net/wifi-firmware-base: fix make index entry
It seems despite IGNORE make index still adds this to the index so
make sure we have a sane PORTNAME until we improve the
wifi-firmware ports even further (still suggestiongs coming in).

net/wifi-firmware-*: add framework and firmware for various WiFi chipsets
Add a "base port framework" to fetch (WiFi) firmware and license files
from the linux-firmware.git repository and an accompanying FreeBSD
build kmod framework tarball (for now; we might do without that in
the future).
Add child ports for Realtek rtw88 and rtw89, Mediatek mt76, and
Atheros ath10k and ath11k firmware as a start.
This is a beginning in order to stop bloating src.git and the
installed kernels with lots of MB of firmware files whereas usually
only one vebdor/chipset/flavor is needed. Before fully switching
more infrastructure needs to be in place but this is the first and
most important step.
