Document non-free-firmware support in the installer for Debian 12

Cyril Brulebois requested to merge non-free-firmware into master

Marking this MR as a draft because of this change, primarily:

commit 45705e21578a61406d79406afd4a38b47417bc92
Author: Cyril Brulebois <kibi@debian.org>
Date:   Mon Jan 30 05:31:33 2023 +0100

    Update url-firmware-tarballs entity.
    
    This is a proposed change, trying to reconcile:
     - non-free-firmware is still non-free;
     - non-free-firmware is still firmware;
     - non-free-firmware is allowed on official installation images, so
       making it available alongside them seems reasonable.
    
    Not having firmware alongside <arch> and source material for each
    release is much easier as we have per-release directories, using
    codenames (instead of X.Y.Z version numbers).

→ We need to come up with an agreement with the @images-team regarding a location that's no longer unofficial!
