All the configurations for the various Bz/Gl devices
are basically identical, except for Gl A-step and the
firmware filename prefixes.
Add some infrastructure to auto-generate the firmware
filename prefix based on the detected MAC step and
RF name/step, and remove all the unneeded configs.
This reduces the size of the iwlwifi module by ~9k:

In some very rare cases the init flow may fail. In many cases, this is
recoverable, so we can retry. Implement a loop to retry two more times
after the first attempt failed.
This can happen in two different situations, namely during probe and
during mac80211 start. For the first case, a simple loop is enough.
For the second case, we need to add a flag to prevent mac80211 from
trying to restart it as well, leaving full control with the driver.

Consensus seems to be emerging that corporations or groups
shouldn't be listed as module authors, and we will not
maintain this email address any longer. Just remove it.

The Free Software Foundation address is superfluous and causes
checkpatch to issue a warning when present. Remove all paragraphs
with FSF's address to prevent that.

NVM code is tightly coupled with 8000 family, while
it really refers to extended NVM format introduced
back then. Separate it to a configuration dependent
boolean, and rename defines accordingly.

When iwl_drv_start() is called, trans->cfg must already be set, so
there's no need to pass cfg separately, since it can be accessed
directly from trans->cfg.
