The firmware memory was allocated in ath11k_pci_probe() or
ath11k_ahb_probe(), but not freed in ath11k_xxx_remove() in case
ATH11K_FLAG_QMI_FAIL bit is set. So call ath11k_fw_destroy() to
free the memory.

Found while fixing the same problem in ath12k:

Tested-on: WCN6855 hw2.1 PCI WLAN.HSP.1.1-04546-QCAHSPSWPL_V1_V2_SILICONZ_IOE-1

v2:
 - rebase and add 2025 copyrights
 - remove ath11k_fw_destroy() from ath11k_core_deinit()
 - move ath11k_fw_destroy() after qmi_fail/free_resources label
 - also fix the same issue in ath11k_ahb_shutdown()
