Delete section about https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=firmware
Given the way debian-cd's make-firmware-image works, it seems quite
unlikely (even if always possible, lots of changes there lately!) that we
would be missing actual firmware packages, i.e. packages which have a
good-looking name *and* actual firmware files in the expected location.
Sending users on a wild goose chase seems like a waste of everyone's time.
