ar5523: Add firmware for new driver

This new firmware fixes several minor bugs:
1. In switch dependent mode, DCB priority was used to override inner vlan
priority.
2. In switch dependent mode, inner vlan was added in case of DCB priority
even if outer vlan was present.
3. In switch dependent mode, outer vlan was overridden by DCB priority when
working in STATIC COS mode while inner vlan was present.
4. iSCSI - under heavy iSCSI traffic, when TCP out-of-order condition
occurred, it was possible for the connection to close and recover.
5. iSCSI - connections on-chip TCP establishment might have failed.
6. iSCSI - out-of-order isles might have caused on-chip TCP connections
to fail in their graceful termination.
7. iSCSI - there was a theoretical race in which an RST packet sent from
pure-ack queue in specific timing could cause a credit-return overflow.
8. iSCSI - not all packets were completed on a forward channel.
9. DCB - fixed for 4-port devices; Until now, wrong credit counters were
used, causing dcb to fail.
10. Fixed false parity reported in CAM memories when operating near -5% on
the 1.0V core supply.
11. ETS default settings are set to fairness between traffic classes (rather
than strict priority), and uses the same chip receive buffer configuration
for both PFC and pause.
