Bug Description
Add symlinks to enable StarFive boards AP6212 Wi-Fi module
[Impact]
* StarFive VisionFIve v1, BeagleV Starlight & Starlight r0 boards use AP6212 Wi-Fi module
* linux-firmware should ship symlinks to .txt files to enable Wi-Fi on those boards
[Test Plan]
* Install updated linux-firmware, check that Wi-Fi works on the affected boards
[Where problems could occur]
* Generic AP5212 Wi-Fi module settings seem to work correctly on these boards, if needed in the future these .txt files may need to be converted to stand-alone files if board specific parameter tuning becomes desired.
[Other Info]
* Based on starfive-tech git repositories
