Comment(by bonefish):

 I don't like this solution. The Jamfiles should never add anything to the
 images. The driver itself should definitely not depend on any image
 target.

 Just declaring the firmware packages and archives in the Jamfiles would be
 fine, e.g.:
 {{{
 HAIKU_WIFI_FIRMWARE_PACKAGE on ralinkwifi = RT61_Firmware_V1.2 ;
 HAIKU_WIFI_FIRMWARE_ARCHIVE on ralinkwifi = RT61_Firmware_V1.2.zip ;
 }}}
 Then in HaikuImage loop over the drivers and add their firmware.
