[PATCH 3/6] b43: support radio 2057 rev 8

Add support for radio 2057 revision 8, paired with N-PHY rev 8 on
the Broadcom BCM6362 single-die integrated 2.4 GHz wireless block.
Three correlated changes are needed for the same chip:
- main.c: the radio_rev allow-list under B43_PHYTYPE_N currently
accepts radio 2057 revisions 9 and 14 only; extend to include
rev 8.
- radio_2057.c: the existing r2057_rev8_init[] is a 54-entry stub
declared inside a /* TODO: Which devices should use it? */
comment block and never referenced from r2057_upload_inittabs().
Replace it with the full 412-entry register set actually
programmed by the proprietary Broadcom wl driver on this radio.
The origin of the original 54-entry stub cannot be traced - 8
of its entries do not appear at all in the rev 8 register set
and 7 more carry different values, so the stub is in any case
not the rev 8 table. Loading it instead of the real table
leaves the radio partially initialised and stalls the PSM at
boot-time radio calibration, producing a "Microcode not
responding" timeout one second into b43_upload_microcode().
- radio_2057.c: r2057_upload_inittabs() case 8 handles radio_rev
5 and 7 only; add the radio_rev == 8 branch pointing at the
new table.
The init table is extracted from an MMIO dump of the radio
register set programmed during proprietary driver initialisation
on BCM6362 silicon (Broadcom wl driver 6.30.102.7). Layout
convention matches the existing r2057_rev5_init[] /
r2057_rev7_init[] / r2057_rev9_init[] arrays in this file:
{ u16 reg, u16 val } per entry.
