[Impact]
New Intel CyclonePeak Wifi cards require new firmware to enable.

[Fix]
To avoid conflicts, also update 9000 series firmware to ABI 46 which has
been added since v5.1-rc1 from iwlwifi tree[1] for-upstream branch
   95a93535 iwlwifi: update -46 firmwares for 22260 and 9000 series
   68040ceb iwlwifi: add firmware for 22260 and update 9000 series -46 firmwares
   fdfb1531 iwlwifi: add -46.ucode firmwares for 9000 series

1. git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/linux-firmware.git

[Test Case]
Verified on AX200NGW & 22560NGW chips & Killer 1653 card, wifi works well.

[Regression Risk]
Low. Those firmware are for new cards and new ABI, it won't affect current
Intel wifi cards, and won't take effect on Bionic(4.15) kernel.
Only iwlwifi DKMS driver or oem-osp1 kernel loads those firmware.

[Misc]
Can't apply the same patchset on Cosmic, and taking into account that
Cosmic is going to EoL on July, so skip Cosmic.
