Qt UI: Change Firmware default to Yes (READ ENTIRE COMMIT MSG BEFORE FLAMING)
There will be two Horizon media types: Firmware, and Libre. The user will be
choosing the media type before downloading an Adélie Linux CD / USB image.
If they choose Firmware, the system will automatically load firmware before
beginning. This is to facilitate graphics cards that won't even bring up the
framebuffer without firmware loaded (most recent GeForces, and all AMDGPUs,
behave this way). This means the user will already be running firmware before
the wizard is running.
If we default to No, and the user doesn't understand the question, they may be
left without a functional computer after installation because their GPU may
still require firmware. If this is the case, it will be extremely difficult
to recover.
Therefore, the default should be Yes, so that users who have already consented
to running firmware on their systems (by using the Firmware media type) will
have the same choice made for them by default in the target.
