[KERNEL][FIRMWARE] KBUILD_FIRMWARE: switch task, fix condition check

Switch task to manipulate kernel config and sources depending on KBUILD_FIRMWARE to do_configure append, the most appropriate one. Fix KBUILD_FIRMWARE condition check: it was, incorrectly, a null check on an improperly selected variables and as such was always true.

[CONNECTIVITY] Add recipe: Edimax EW-7611ULB Realtek RTL8723BU firmware

Add Edimax EW-7611ULB USB combo WiFi+BT dongle firmware, to be used with the kernel built-in driver: its chipset is Realtek RTL8723BU. The firmware files are sourced from the EW-7611ULB_Linux_Driver_1.0.2 vendor package: https://www.edimax.com/edimax/mw/cufiles/files/download/Driver_Utility/EW-7611ULB/EW-7611ULB_Linux_Driver_1.0.2.1.zip

• BT binaries have simply been renamed from EW-7611ULB_Linux_Driver_1.0.1.2/Bluetooth/8723BU
• WiFi binaries had to be generated from the convert_firmware{.c,.s} files available into the archive:
  • conversion program adapted from https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8723bu/blob/master/convert_firmware.c
  • firmware data from EW-7611ULB_Linux_Driver_1.0.1.2/Wi-FI/driver/hal/rtl8723b/hal8723b_fw.c

[LINUX-FIRMWARE] avoid package conflict for murata1mw-fw, wilink8-fw

For KBUILD_FIRMWARE mechanism to be able to add the firmware to kernel image, it needs to use DEPENDS to add firmware blobs into staging directory. Remove certain linux-firmware packages to avoid having conflicting binaries errors with recipes murata1mw-fw and wilink8-fw.
