Teach brcm_alt_fw_paths to correctly split off variable length

Apple platforms have per-board CLM blob files.
Are you sure? I am not involved in development for Apple platforms, but 
in general we build a CLM blob specific for a chip revision. As always 
with the blobs they are created at a certain point in time and that is 
mostly why you need another one for a newer platform. Apple tends to do 
things a bit different so you could be right though. Anyway, despite my 
doubts on this it does not change the need for per-board firmware files.

So all firmware files are attempted with board-specific path now.
