gnu: Remove Realtek WiFi drivers with firmware blobs.
rtl8821ce-linux-module contains, e.g., halhwimg8821c_fw.c and
hal8821c_fw.c.  rtl8812au-aircrack-ng-linux-module has, e.g.,
hal8814a_fw.c, hal8812a_fw.c, and hal8821a_fw.c.  Each of these
examples contains non-free firmware blobs disguised as C arrays.

* gnu/packages/linux.scm (rtl8821ce-linux-module)
(rtl8812au-aircrack-ng-linux-module): Remove variables.
