This commit updates several binaries already present for GXL, GXM and
G12A chips, but also adds:

- HEVC for G12A
- HEVC for SM1
- VP9 for GXL
- VP9 for SM1

The support for which - apart from HEVC, still in development - is
currently in-review in the linux-media mailing list [1][2][3].

Maxime Jourdan e04cc56d0e amlogic: add video decoder firmwares
Add the firmwares for various video compression standards that are
required to decode video on Amlogic SoCs using hardware acceleration.

They are listed under a custom redistributable license provided by
Amlogic.

Although the filelist is not complete yet (there are a _lot_ of
different codec/SoC combinations), the firmwares added here are
supported and tested with the work-in-progress mainline driver.

The latest submission for the mainline driver can be found here[1], and
the development tree can be found here[2].
