Argh, unfortunately the situation is a little more complicated than it
seems. Upstream (in RaspiOS):

 * BCM4345C5 has now been updated so it's a newer version than that in 
bluez-firmware
 * BCM43430B0 is renamed to SYN43430B0 (presumably as a result of broadcom 
assets changing hands to synaptics)
 * BCM43430A1 has disappeared (in favour of the bluez-firmware), and
 * BCM4343A2 is a newly added firmware, presumably for some future iteration of 
one of the Pis

Still, bluez-firmware is specifically tagged as being for "Raspberry Pi
hardware" and it does currently conflict with linux-firmware-raspi,
which is a Bad Thing (tm). So ... what should *probably* happen is for
the updates to the Raspberry Pi Bluetooth firmware listed above, to be
moved into bluez-firmware, and for the pi-bluetooth package to be
updated to depend on bluez-firmware instead of linux-firmware-raspi.

However, pi-bluetooth is seeded on the Pi Desktop images (because
Bluetooth is expected to work OOTB on the desktop). linux-firmware-raspi
is currently in restricted, but bluez-firmware is in multiverse, so
moving these firmwares is going to cause a component mismatch which will
require an MIR on bluez-firmware to sort out. Given we're already passed
feature freeze, I'm not confident in getting an MIR through the process
before the beta (when we need to have images produced) on the 4th April.

So, assigning myself to this, but I'll be putting this off until 24.10.
For the time being, I'll bump the bluetooth firmwares in linux-firmware-
raspi as usual, and add a Conflicts on bluez-firmware to linux-firmware-
raspi to ensure people can't try and install them simultaneously.
