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.
