qcom: remove split SC7280 venus firmware images
Qualcomm drivers have supported non-split firmware since since 2019 in
linux kernel commit 498b98e93900 ("soc: qcom: mdt_loader: Support
loading non-split images"). There are no released devices using the
SC7280 chipset, so there is no need to support legacy split images.
I verified that the non-split image is loadable and that the venus
media capabilities are intact without the split images with a ChromeOS
5.15 kernel.

qcom: replace split SC7180 venus firmware images with symlink
Qualcomm drivers have supported non-split firmware since since 2019 in
linux kernel commit 498b98e93900 ("soc: qcom: mdt_loader: Support
loading non-split images"). The firmware loader works with either the
split or non-split firmware types. The venus driver for SC7180 currently
loads venus.mdt, not the unified venus.mbn.
This commit removes the non-split images. It adds a link from venus.mdt
to venus.mbn. This retains existing driver compatibility, while gaining
the benefit of reducing size of the deployed files.
I verified this change with on ChromeOS using kernels based on 5.4 and
5.15.

qcom: add squashed version of a530 zap shader
Qualcomm binary files can be published in one of two formats: a split
MDT+Bnn format, consisting of several files, or a squashed MBN format,
consisting of a single ELF file.
Most of Qualcomm binary files (except the venus firmware) are
distributed (in linux-firmware) and used in the MBN format (even if the
original publishing format was MDT), since that requires transfer of a
single file between the userspace and the kernel.
Provide a squashed variant of Qualcomm Adreno a530 ZAP shader. For
backwards compatibility reason the split a530_zap.* files are retained.
They can be removed later, after all users migrate to new file location.

After some discussion with Bjorn, the Qualcomm platform maintainer, it
was agreed to follow the established practice and to inject the SoC name
into the firmware paths.
It is highly unlikely that we are going to run Linux off the existing
ACPI data in these platforms anytime soon. And even if we do so, we'd
have to figure out the file names anyway, as they do not follow the
existing standard names.

Mellanox: Add new mlxsw_spectrum firmware xx.2010.3146
Add latest verified version of Nvidia Spectrum-family switch firmware,
for Spectrum (13.2010.3146), Spectrum-2 (29.2010.3146) and Spectrum-3
(30.2010.3146). Furthermore, add lc_ini_bundle_2010_3146.bin for modular
systems.
The following issues have been fixed:
- In Spectrum-3, fix fallback from PCIe gen3 to gen1, resulting in poor PCI
throughput
- In Spectrum-2, 1Gbps speed is now supported with 40Gbps modules
- Stability issues when burning FW to gearboxes on modular systems
- Several issues in link negotiation and link stability of modular systems
- Latency of several registers has been improved: PLLP, SFMR, SFN, PEFA,
RATR, MPILM, PPBS, RMPE, RIPS, PTER, SBCTR
- In Spectrum-2 and Spectrum-3, an issue in ECN marking on traffic going
through split ports
- Support of IPv4-to-IPv6 NAT in Spectrum-4
- PTP accuracy improvements on 1Gbps, 25Gbps and 50Gbps ports in Spectrum-1
and 10Gbps port in Spectrum-3
- On Spectrum-2+, fix edge cases of ACL matching IPv6 packets
- On Spectrum-3, an issue with a partial CRC overwrite when timestamp over
CRC is set to UTC and CRC recalculation is disabled
- On Spectrum-1, a possible FW freeze when many (e.g. 70) ports are up, and
shared buffer configuration is applied on the fly
