Back in the day, the board-2.bin came with ath10k-firmware-qca4019.
This changed with
commit c3b2efaf24 ("linux-firmware: ath10k: add board firmware packages")
which placed the board-2.bin into a separate package: ath10k-board-qca4019.
This was great, because it addressed one of the caveat of the original
ipq-wifi package:
commit fa03d441e9 ("firmware: add custom IPQ wifi board definitions")
| 2. updating ath10k-firmware-qca4019 will also replace
| the board-2.bin. For this cases the user needs to
| manually reinstall the wifi-board package once the
| ath10k-firmware-qca4019 is updated.
This could be extended further so that ipq-wifi packages
no longer use "install-override" and the various QCA4019
variants list the ath10k-board-qca4019 as a CONFLICT
package.

Instead of duplicating board firmware binaries, which are exactly the same
as the ones from linux-firmware, add dependencies and remove duplicated
downloads.
Runtime-tested on ath79 (TP-Link Archer C7 v2) and ipq806x (Netgear R7800).

This expands packages to define not only provides but also conflicts.
These packages provides same files so they should specify conflicts.
Second expansion is that *-ct-htt and *-ct-full-htt firmwares can also
provide *-ct variant as that allows explicit dependency on CT variant
with various firmware modifications.

Not a large change from last time, but should fix at least one rare wave-2
crash. The htt-mgt-community builds are trimmed for supporting lots of
stations (typically 150+ stations per radio).
Tested on Netgear R7800.

For wave-2, there is now a new variant: htt-mgt-community (vs the old
full-htt-mgt-community).
The non-full one (hence forth 'diet') compiles out a lot of firmware features
that ath10k does not use. This saves a lot of resources and lets one
configure more stations/vdevs/etc using fwcfg.
