firmwareLinuxNonfree -> linux-firmware
This renames our `firmwareLinuxNonfree` package to `linux-firmware`. There is prior art for this in multiple other distros[1][2][3]. Besides making the package more discoverable by those searching for the usual name, this also brings it in-line with the `kebab-case` we normally see in `nixpkgs` pnames, and removes the `Nonfree` information from the name, which I consider redundant given it's present in `meta.license`. The corresponding alias has been added, so this shouldn't break anything.
