amlogic: add video decoder firmwares

Add the firmwares for various video compression standards that are
required to decode video on Amlogic SoCs using hardware acceleration.

They are listed under a custom redistributable license provided by
Amlogic.

Although the filelist is not complete yet (there are a _lot_ of
different codec/SoC combinations), the firmwares added here are
supported and tested with the work-in-progress mainline driver.

The latest submission for the mainline driver can be found here[1], and
the development tree can be found here[2].
