Install the latest backports.git/mt76.git using pi-gen and make it part of the WLAN Pi OS image.

Image built is automated using: https://github.com/WLAN-Pi/pi-gen Currently, MediaTek firmware is installed using this WLAN Pi package: https://github.com/WLAN-Pi/wlanpi-misc-firmware

Our current source of MediaTek firmware files: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/mediatek

We have a repo/package for distributing our custom kernel (https://github.com/WLAN-Pi/wlanpi-kernel). Unless I'm misunderstanding how this is going to work, I'm thinking that this is the place where we should look into bringing mt76.git, and not pi-gen, so that when we compile the custom kernel we also make sure to include the latest driver sources from mt76.git.
