iwl7260-ucode-25.228.9.0.ebuild

The latest version of iwl7260-ucode is not yet in Portage. I've tested it on my laptop (Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro), and it seems to at least make minor improvements in connection quality. I'm happy to perform more testing if needed in any way.

The ebuild is identical to the ones already in portage,excep the required kernel version has been bumped to 3.14.9 as shown on http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi

Please let me know if I can help this ebuild at least move to ~arch in any way.

The text when the kernel version requirements are not met should be updated too, this patch adds those changes.
