Avoiding --device-open-mbim in qmicli and qmi-firmware-update

Hey,

How about we change libqmi so that by default it will check which
kernel driver exposed the cdc-wdm port, and then use QMI directly (if
qmi_wwan) or QMI over MBIM (if cdc_mbim)? That would allow us to
obsolete --device-open-mbim for good.

There were cases where devices would support both protocols directly,
depending on which was first used, but I don't think this is something
we should even spend much time on supporting.

Comments?
