[yocto] [meta-raspberrypi][PATCH] firmware.inc: Fetch a zip instead of cloning a git repo

[Jon Szymaniak]

GitHub provides this ability to download repository contents at
a specified changeset as a zip file. This is generally *much* quicker
than fetching the entire git repository.

This resolves some do_fetch() failures I've seen for bcm2835-bootfiles
in which the clone operation takes a very long time, and the connection
eventually hangs and errors out.
