Update webpage to GR non-free-firmware: remove chapter about debian-installer asking for non-free firmware from CD/faq. (Starting with bookworm, we can expect that (missing) firmware is no longer an issue, since the official images have the needed firmware onboard. Thus removing this from the FAQ.)

-<toc-add-entry name="firmware">Debian installer tells me my hardware
-needs extra firmware to work. Where do I get that?</toc-add-entry>
-
-<p>Many devices require firmware to operate. Historically, firmware
-would be built into the device's ROM or Flash memory, but more and
-more often, a firmware image has to be loaded into the device by a
-device driver during device initialization.</p>
-
-<p>Some firmware images are free and open-source, and some of them are
-non-free, which means that you would need to add the non-free and
-contrib components to your APT sources.</p>
-
-<p>In some cases the installer detects the need for non-free firmware
-and prompts the user to make the firmware available to the installer
-to complete the installation. This can happen, for example, with
-wireless network cards which often require non-free firmware to
-function (see ipw2200 for an example).</p>
-
-<p>There are two ways to proceed here:</p>
-
-<ul>
-
-  <li>An easy method is to use an installer image that includes all
-    non-free firmware packages directly. See
-    <a href="https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/cd-including-firmware/">https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/cd-including-firmware/</a>
-    for those.</li>
-
-  <li>You can also download a firmware archive for your platform and
-    unpack it into a directory named <q>firmware</q> in the root of a
-    removable storage device (USB/CD drive). You can find firmware
-    downloads for your Debian version at
-    <a href="https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/firmware/">https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/firmware/</a>. When
-    the installer starts, it will automatically find the firmware
-    files in the directory on the removable storage and, if needed,
-    install the required firmware. This is documented in
-    the <a href="https://d-i.debian.org/doc/installation-guide/en.amd64/ch06s04.html">Debian
-    installer manual</a>.</li>

-</ul>
