Uuencode the sample "binary" firmware image file (instead of explicitly
adding \0 bytes). This is a technique that would be used in an actual
driver and is more suitable as an example.

# 220205 31-Mar-2011 emaste

Avoid having a binary file in our source tree and instead create it at
build time, to avoid possible grief maintaining FreeBSD source in
alternative version control tools.

firmware(9) is a subsystem to load binary data into the kernel via a
specially crafted module. There are several handrolled sollutions to this
problem in the tree already which will be replaced with this. They include
iwi(4), ipw(4), ispfw(4) and digi(4).
