Update firmware WD Black SN770 firmware on Arch Linux

Been having problems with my new SN770 drive, and decided to check if I can firmware update it on Linux. WD only provides a Windows tool, Western Digital Dashboard to download and install firmwares, but, it's possible to find the firmware and install it using Linux tooling as well.

1. Check that nvme-cli is installed:

❱ sudo pacman -S nvme-cli
