🍓 EXAMPLE 🍓

okay bestie, examples time — these are literally the examples:

$ c8y firmware versions install --device 1234 --firmware linux-iot --version 1.0.0
Install a firmware version (lookup url automatically).
If the firmware/version exists in the firmware repository, then it will add the url automatically

$ c8y firmware versions install --device 1234 --firmware linux-iot --version 1.0.0 --url "https://my.blobstore.com/linux-iot.tar.gz"
Install a firmware version with an explicit url
