Bluetooth: btusb: Allow firmware re-download when version matches



The Bluetooth host decides whether to download firmware by reading the
controller firmware download completion flag and firmware version
information.

If a USB error occurs during the firmware download process (for example
due to a USB disconnect), the download is aborted immediately. An
incomplete firmware transfer does not cause the controller to set the
download completion flag, but the firmware version information may be
updated at an early stage of the download process.

In this case, after USB reconnection, the host attempts to re-download
the firmware because the download completion flag is not set. However,
since the controller reports the same firmware version as the target
firmware, the download is skipped. This ultimately results in the
firmware not being properly updated on the controller.

This change removes the restriction that skips firmware download when
the versions are equal. It covers scenarios where the USB connection
can be disconnected at any time and ensures that firmware download can
be retriggered after USB reconnection, allowing the Bluetooth firmware
to be correctly and completely updated.
