Add symlink for Dell XPS 15 9550 Broadcom Bluetooth patch-ram file
The linux-firmware repo does not contain many Broadcom (now Cypress) Bluetooth patch-ram files, because we have never been able to get permission to re-distribute those. We do have one file for the for HTC Vive, which was submitted by HTC themselves with permission from Cypress. That file contain a "BCM20703A1 Generic USB 20Mhz fcbga_BU" patch-ram build. The patch-ram files used by Windows for the Bluetooth module in the XPS 15 9550, USB-id 0a5c:6410 is also a "BCM20703A1 Generic USB 20Mhz fcbga_BU" patch-ram build. Since the build-parameters (crystal MHz, package/module type used) between the 2 builds are an exact match we can also use the HTC submitted patch-ram for the XPS 15 9550. So lets add a symlink for this. This will make the Bluetooth on the XPS 15 9550 work out of the box, when linux-firmware is installed, without the user needing to go and find a suitable patch-ram file themselves. This has been tested on a XPS 15 9550 with both Bluetooth HID and Bluetooth audio devices.
