Linux kernel 6.1 does not have support for PRU-ICSSM driver.
So remove packaging of all the PRU-ICSSM firmwares for kernel 6.1
based SDKs.

In the v2 version, it was suggested to have the changes in the SDK layer.
But after discussion with meta-ti(Ryan) and meta-processor-sdk(Gyan)
maintainers, it was decided to introduce a new .inc file that removes the
packaging of the firmware and include it in the kernel recipes that don't
have support for PRU-ICSSM in meta-ti. This series attempts to take that
approach.

The support for PRU-ICSSM driver will be available in mainline and TI kernel
towards the end of 2024. So until such time, this approach will be followed.

v2:https://serenity.dal.design.ti.com/patchwork/project/meta-ti/patch/20230908113836.12413-1-r-gunasekaran@ti.com/
v1:https://serenity.dal.design.ti.com/patchwork/project/meta-ti/patch/20230908114439.13213-1-r-gunasekaran@ti.com/
