Giulio Benetti a9c5dc024a package/rtl8188eu: move upstream to Benetti Engineering Github to fix Linux 6.15 build failure
Benetti Engineering just took over Larry Finger(lwfinger)'s repository
rtl8188eu since Larry unfortunately passed away[0](RIP) and there are
pending PRs that will never be checked as stated here[1]. So basically move
github user to benetti-engineering-sas and update version with latest that
fixes build failure with Linux version 6.15. And let's drop local patches
that are now upstreamed as well. Let's also drop obsolete Config.in
informations since as stated here[2]: "This driver is under development
and has a limited feature set. In particular it does not yet support 40MHz
channels and power management". At the same time drop other suggestions
like enabling CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT or "this package needs a firmware loading
mechanism to load the binary blob for the chip to work" since they are now
part of the package. And of course let's update package's URL due to the
moving.
