[meta-freescale] Missing Atheros ath6k Firmware

[Post Lauren-RAA013]

We just fixed this for upcoming release.  We had to update the MACHINE_EXTRA_RECOMMENDS which are set in imx-base.inc  

+MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS_append_mx6q = " firmware-imx-vpu-imx6q firmware-imx-ath6k"
+MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS_append_mx6dl = " firmware-imx-vpu-imx6d firmware-imx-ath6k"

Make sure to cleanall your packagegroup-base to include it.

You can check linux-firmware recipe; it has the firmware packaged. So you can look at Yocto documentation about how to add it to your image.
