Adds BDF for the TP-Link Archer C6 v2 (US) / A6 v2 (US/TW) QCA9888 radio. This restores its 5GHz range, which is long overdue since the device's initial OpenWRT support since 2019.

Boardfile is obtained from stock firmware (2021-02-26), found at
'/lib/firmware/QCA9888/hw.2/boardData_2_0_QCA9888_5G_YA105_us.bin'.

I am also attempting to submit the boardfile upstream.

@ohmstance shouldn't this be QCA_9_888?

As @Leo-PL pointed out, your suffix is wrong, its .qca8888 but it should be .qca9888 instead
