Following the example of rtw88 and rtw89 only ship iwlwifi firmware from ports/packages. Users are asked to run fwget(8) to install the firmware needed for their system or build it from ports (see also UPDATING). This is the end of a long story adding wireless support to fwget(8), migrating the firmware for multiple branches into ports, splitting them up into flavors, and updating some install media and the installer to provide firmware. The overall amount for new firmware amongst all drivers would have added more than 100M of binary blobs to src.git for the first import, ignoring future updates which (along with some duplication between multiple drivers) was considered too much. While maintenance within the src tree certainly would have been easier in the longer term this seems to be the better solution and I would like to thank everyone who helped along the path to get there. The iwlwififw.4 man page is to stay (for now) and will likely point at the appropriate firmware package flavor in the future as well so people may find it easier to transition. In the long term this information is likely not needed anymore.
