Hello,

As the ath9k-htc-firmware package requires a custom toolchain to build
the firmware I thought it was best to have a target for this specific
package as it modifies the default configuration of the Xtensa target in
GCC.

To work around this a new target is added: xtensa-ath9k-elf.

It uses binutils@2.33 and the patched version of GCC to properly compile
the firmware. So, as a result it allows using #:target keyword parameter
to cross-compile the firmware and avoids explicitly adding the cross
compiler in the NATIVE-INPUTS field.

As a result the ath9k-htc-firmware package was splitted into two and
uses the cmake-build-sytem now to use Guix's cross-compilation support
properly, so it removes the need for the ath9k-htc-firmware-objcopy.patch.

The [PATCH 7/8] contains a patch that was already sent to:

https://issues.guix.gnu.org/68366

I don't have the hardware to test this firmware but the build produces
the same hashes for the firmware so it's safe to say that the firmware
should keep working.

The hashes with this patch series:
