	Installed from November snapshot, supped to HEAD.
>Description:
	iwi(4) has recently changed its behavior with regard to firmware loading,
	now doing so automatically when it's placed in /boot/firmware.

	The iwi-firmware port however places firmware unconditionally in
	/usr/local/share/iwi-firmware.  It should be made aware of /boot/firmware
	so reinstalling the port resolves the firmware open errors that
	result from upgrading.
>How-To-Repeat:
	
>Fix:

	Install contents of /usr/local/share/iwi-firmware/ to /boot/firmware
	depending on OS version, presumably also conditionally installing the
	rc script now the driver can load firmware on its own.

	Documenting /boot/firmware in the iwi manpage or so would also help :)
