Certain wireless drivers (like the Broadcom FullMac drivers" expect the regulatory.db and
regulatory.db.p7s files to be available to be loadable from /lib/firmware. If not available
the driver still loads but runs on a minimal subset of channels.
This newly added option gives possibility to have those files copied to the necessary directory.
