Bug Description

[Impact]
Make xlnx-firmware depend on xilinx-bootgen instead of bootgen-xlnx

xilinx-bootgen created by Debian Project official developer is available on Debian and Ubuntu archives. xlnx-firmware should use xilnx-bootgen to generate boot.bin. So, make xlnx-firmware depend on xilinx-bootgen instead of bootgen-xlnx.

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/xilinx-bootgen
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xilinx-bootgen

[Test Plan]
Check if a workable boot.bin can be generated by xilinx-bootgen after upgrading xlnx-firmware
1. install xlnx-firmware (2022.1-2-0ubuntu1)
2. upgrade xlnx-firmware
3. Check if bootgen-xlnx is removed and a workable boot.bin can be generated by xilinx-bootgen

[Where problems could occur]
bootgen-xlnx is same as xilinx-bootgen. There should be no risk.

Related issues:
LP: #2000774 Add bootgen-xlnx to Breaks, Replaces, and Provides
LP: #1998728 Make bootgen-xlnx a transitional package without real contents

This looks good, but as noted in LP: #2000774 I'm going to adjust it slightly to depend on xilinx-bootgen | bootgen-xlnx. This should ensure that if this migrates before the changes to the other packages, installations existing dependencies can still be satisfied.
