net/wifi-firmware-kmod: deal with '?' in file names as sha256 broke it

md5 (sha256) as of 70fde0ed6bbbb1f84c440190ba1e5435f8c90e13 in base
started quoting ? as \? which then goes into the distinfo file and
as a result we fail to find that file later using Mk/Scripts/.

Using the dummy=/ option is not as straight forward with a dynamic list
of distfiles as one would wish.
We now build a full matrix of MASTER_SITE x DISTFILES;  that is for
each "DISTFILE" we generate a :group with a full download URL on each
"MASTER_SITE".  That way each file is still possibly downloadable from
each of the various master sites.

The difference now is that the files stored in distfiles no longer
contain the ?h=<tag> extension as we strip that for the distfile having

net/wifi-firmware-mt7601u-kmod: bump version

In order to keep all wifi-firmware ports on the same level, bump
the version here;  the underlying firmware file has not changed
since it was added in 2023 so we are save.

net/wifi-firmware-kmod: allow ONLY_FOR_ARCHS to be set by child ports

mtw(4) is built along USB for all architectures so we need firmware
on all architectures -- unlike the LinuxKPI based wireless drivers
which are restricted by default.

Allow ONLY_FOR_ARCHS to be set in a child port; maintaing a full list
of supported ARCHes seems unreasonable though so allow NOT_FOR_ARCHS
to disable the ONLY_FOR_ARCHS logic in Makefile.inc.  That way
wifi-firmware-mt7601u-kmod can define an empty NOT_FOR_ARCHS and
it should build on all ARCHes.

net/wifi-firmware-{iwlwifi,*}-kmod: add missing firmware files

The firmware files for iwlwifi were lacking entries for some older
driver versions on 14.2-RELEASE and stable/14 [1] before
src:f4e352ef16d6.

In addition iwx(4) switched to using the same firmware file names
as iwlwifi so that fwget(8) would work for both of them (D49259).
We add the set of iwx(4) firmware files hard coded to the list of
files.

Given the list of supported revisions will grow and maintaining them
for all branches will be tedious without overlap we will simply create
the lists and let make do the job of :O:u (sort/uniq) in the common
Makefile.inc to filter out duplicates between branches.
