rtl8821au: new package
PATCH v8 1/1 rtl8821au: new package
This patch adds the rtl8821au wifi driver. The driver is sourced from ulli-kroll's work on GitHub, which includes various fixes and better LED handling. Currently USB3 support is broken in this driver - it will only connect to the EHCI controller in a USB3 port.

[All:
- Fixed licensing information]
- Removed hash file]
- Altered firmware install to be a post-install hook]

... since you could directly do it here:
USER_EXTRA_CFLAGS=-DCONFIG_$(call qstrip,$(BR2_ENDIAN))_ENDIAN
But ultimately, this should be check for directly in the code, with:
#if __BYTE_ORDER__ == __ORDER_LITTLE_ENDIAN__
#define CONFIG_LITTLE_ENDIAN
#else
#define CONFIG_BIG_ENDIAN
#endif(Sorry, I forgot to say so in my previous review.)
Otherwise;
