net: devlink: add DEVLINK_INFO_VERSION_GENERIC_FW_BOOTLOADER
As discussed in [1], abbreviating the bootloader to "bl" might not be well understood. Instead, a bootloader technically being a firmware, name it "fw.bootloader". Add a new macro to devlink.h to formalize this new info attribute name and update the documentation.
