The problem is that the iwm module tries to load the firmware from
/boot/firmware/iwm8000Cfw, but eventually fails because the filename from the
installed package is incorrect.
To fix this, iwm8000C needs to be renamed to iwm8000Cfw, and an additional
entry must be added to /boot/loader.conf:
$ mv /boot/firmware/iwm8000C /boot/firmware/iwm8000Cfw
$ echo 'iwm8000Cfw_type="firmware"' >> /boot/loader.conf
