Add basic Wifi support for Qualcomm WCN6856

This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-oem-5.14/5.14.0-1015.15 kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-focal' to 'verification-done-focal'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-focal' to 'verification-failed-focal'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Hello Kai-Heng, or anyone else affected,

Accepted linux-firmware into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/1.187.25 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

I've recently bought the new [2022 Razer Blade 14'' with 3070 Ti](https://mysupport.razer.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5924/~/at-a-glance%3A-razer-blade-14-%282022%29-%7C-rz09-0427x).

Unfortunately after installing Ubuntu 22.04 Desktop I've quickly come to realize that neither WiFi nor BT are working.

Can anyone help me with resolving this issue?

Edit: I tried Ubuntu 18.x, 20.x, 21.x, 22.x and fedora 36 with all various kernels and it all shows the same errors. Looks like only Windows has the drivers for the recent hardware.
