fcb920ffe7 ath79: Consistently label art partition with lower case
This patch harmonizes the label and alias for art partitions
across ath79. Since lower case seems to be more frequent, use that
consistently.

3d153323ab ath79: Consistently label info partition
The info/product-info partition, which frequently contains MAC
adresses, is typically assigned the 'info' alias in DTS, but
then labelled with 'info', 'product-info' or 'config'.

This leads to different aliases if used for setting MAC adresses
in DTS compared to when using e.g. mtd_get_mac_binary. Occationally,
also multiple switch-case entries are used just because of different
labelling.

This patch relabels those partitions in ath79 to consistently use
'info'.

d4b89b7170 ath79: Add support for TP-Link TL-WR1043N v5
Specifications:

 - QCA9563 at 775 MHz
 - 64 MB RAM Zentel A3R12E40CBF-8E
 - 16 MB flash Winbond W25Q128FVSG
 - 3 (non-detachable) Antennas / 450 Mbit
 - 1x/4x WAN/LAN Gbps Ethernet (QCA8337)
 - reset and Wi-Fi buttons

TP-Link TL-WR1043N v5 appears to be identical to the TL-WR1043ND v4,
except that the USB port has been removed and there is no longer a
removable antenna option. It also has different partitioning scheme.

The software is more in line with the Archer series in that it uses a
nested bootloader scheme.

(This has been adapted from the OpenWrt Wiki page)
<https://openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wr1043nd>

Installation on HW rev.5:

Factory firmware can be installed via the WEB interface.

Alternatively, it is also possible to use a TFTP server
for recovery purposes:
 - Rename OpenWRT or original firmware to WR1043v5_tp_recovery.bin
 - Set static IP of your PC to *192.168.0.66*
 - Router will obtain IP 192.168.0.86 for a few seconds while
   loading, when reset button pressed at power On.

And finally, there's always u-boot access through the UART.
