commit 5d6d1ddd2730 ("firmware: move firmware loader into its own directory")
and other commits renamed the old firmware_class.c file and split it
into separate files, but documentation was not changed accordingly,
causing Sphinx errors.
Change the location accordingly at the documentation files.
While here, add a missing entry at request_firmware.rst for
release_firmware() function.
