[PATCH] net: airoha: Remove dead MT7996 NPU firmware declarations
From: Wayen.Yan <hidden>

Remove the NPU_EN7581_7996_FIRMWARE_DATA/RV32 #define macros and
their corresponding MODULE_FIRMWARE() declarations. Neither the
en7581_npu_soc_data nor the an7583_npu_soc_data references these
firmware names, and no firmware loading path in the driver ever
requests them. The only references are the #define lines themselves
and the MODULE_FIRMWARE() declarations below.
Keeping dead MODULE_FIRMWARE entries causes modprobe/udev to attempt
pre-loading non-existent firmware files, generating kernel log noise
and misleading distributors about which firmware files to package.
