From: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison at Intel.com>

Upstream direction is to include the bare minimum of version numbers
in firmware files and to replace them in the repo rather than
accumulating them. For HuC, that means going completely versionless.
For GuC, the major version needs to be kept as that indicates a break
in backwards compatibility with the KMD.

v2: Fix a bunch of issues and add better documentation (some found in
code review by Daniele, other through more thorough testing).
