With all the cleanups now, we can rename the structure to
better indicate the functionality. For older devices this
isn't quite accurate, of course, but it's better to have a
name that reflects future use for maintenance.
Add some kernel-doc while at it.

Revert commit dfdfe4be18 ("wifi: iwlwifi: remove retry loops in
start"), it turns out that there's an issue with the PNVM load
notification from firmware not getting processed, that this patch
has been somewhat successfully papering over. Since this is being
reported, revert the loop removal for now.
We will later at least clean this up to only attempt to retry if
there was a timeout, but currently we don't even bubble up the
failure reason to the correct layer, only returning NULL.

There's either the pldr_sync case, in which case we didn't want
or do the retry loops anyway, or things will just continue to
fail. Remove the retry loop that was added in a previous attempt
to address the issue that was later (though still a bit broken)
addressed by the pldr_sync case.

We used to have a test built into the code for this internally,
but now we can put that into kunit and let everyone run it, to
verify the devinfo table ordering if it's changed.

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.

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.
