blacklist: Add sound open firmware
These pacages come from the core/sof-bin PKGBUILD in the Archlinux
core repository.
They are not built from source. So while the license look free
software (We have some BSD 3 clauses, ISC licenses and so on[1])
it's hard to know if the binary releases correspond to fully
free software code without building it.

In addition, some of the files are signed and according to their
documentation[2]: "Code that is not signed by Intel, OEM or the
OTC public key will not therefore be able to run (signing key
used depends on hardware).".

So pracitcally speaking, even if the licenses are free, the result is
nonfree because users can't run a modified version.
