main/linux-postmarketos-allwinner: use rtl8723cs driver from kernel tree

We'll use the new RTL8723CS driver in the kernel tree instead of using the one that we have to fetch from GitHub.

DO NOT MERGE NOW, MAC ADDRESS APPEARS TO BE CHANGED EVERY TIME THE DEVICE IS REBOOTED.

added category::device type::feature labels

Is it better? worse? how is it different?

We copied icenowy's rtl8723cs driver into the pine64/linux kernel repo so that's building, so it should probably be updated there :D

Update the kernel to latest sha of today.

Meh, building takes forever. I'll merge other MRs in the meantime.

After this passed, someone can just rebase on master, add [ci:skip-build]: already built successfully in CI to the commit message and then merge it after CI passes quickly (without doing the build again).

I didn't add [ci:skip-build] this time, because I've resolved some minor merge conflicts and wanted to make sure that it still builds.
