[tcp] Send TCP keepalives on idle established connections
In some circumstances, intermediate devices may lose state in a way
that temporarily prevents the successful delivery of packets from a
TCP peer. For example, a firewall may drop a NAT forwarding table
entry.
Since iPXE spends most of its time downloading files (and hence purely
receiving data, sending only TCP ACKs), this can easily happen in a
situation in which there is no reason for iPXE's TCP stack to generate
any retransmissions. The temporary loss of connectivity can therefore
effectively become permanent.
Work around this problem by sending TCP keepalives after a period of
inactivity on an established connection.
TCP keepalives usually send a single garbage byte in sequence number
space that has already been ACKed by the peer. Since we do not need
to elicit a response from the peer, we instead send pure ACKs (with no
garbage data) in order to keep the transmit code path simple.

[pci] Support systems with multiple PCI root bridges
Extend the 16-bit PCI bus:dev.fn address to a 32-bit seg:bus:dev.fn
address, assuming a segment value of zero in contexts where multiple
segments are unsupported by the underlying data structures (e.g. in
the iBFT or BOFM tables).

[dhcp] Fix definitions for x86_64 and EFI BC client architectures
There has been a longstanding disagreement between RFC4578 and the
IANA "Processor Architecture Types" registry. RFC4578 section 2.1
defines type 7 as "EFI BC" and type 9 as "EFI x86-64"; the IANA
registry quotes RFC4578 as its source but has these values erroneously
swapped. The EDK2 codebase uses the IANA values.
As of March 2016, RFC4578 has been modified by an errata to match the
values as recorded in the IANA registry.
Fix our definitions to match the consensus values.

[efi] Use a timer event to generate the currticks() timer
We currently use the EFI_CPU_ARCH_PROTOCOL's GetTimerValue() method to
generate the currticks() timer, calibrated against a 1ms delay from
the boot services Stall() method.
This does not work on ARM platforms, where GetTimerValue() is an empty
stub which just returns EFI_UNSUPPORTED.
Fix by instead creating a periodic timer event, and using this event
to increment a current tick counter.

PCI devices may support more capabilities of the same type (for
example PCI_CAP_ID_VNDR) and there was no way to discover all of them.
This commit adds a new API pci_find_next_capability which provides
this functionality. It would typically be used like so:
for (pos = pci_find_capability(pci, PCI_CAP_ID_VNDR);
pos > 0;
pos = pci_find_next_capability(pci, pos, PCI_CAP_ID_VNDR)) {

[efi] Provide access to files stored on EFI filesystems
Provide access to local files via the "file://" URI scheme. There are
three syntaxes:
- An opaque URI with a relative path (e.g. "file:script.ipxe").
This will be interpreted as a path relative to the iPXE binary.
- A hierarchical URI with a non-network absolute path
(e.g. "file:/boot/script.ipxe"). This will be interpreted as a
path relative to the root of the filesystem from which the iPXE
binary was loaded.
- A hierarchical URI with a network path in which the authority is a
volume label (e.g. "file://bootdisk/script.ipxe"). This will be
interpreted as a path relative to the root of the filesystem with
the specified volume label.
Note that the potentially desirable shell mappings (e.g. "fs0:" and
"blk0:") are concepts internal to the UEFI shell binary, and do not
seem to be exposed in any way to external executables. The old
EFI_SHELL_PROTOCOL (which did provide access to these mappings) is no
longer installed by current versions of the UEFI shell.

[build] Allow assembler section type character to vary by architecture
On some architectures (such as ARM) the "@" character is used as a
comment delimiter. A section type argument such as "@progbits"
therefore becomes "%progbits".
This is further complicated by the fact that the "%" character has
special meaning for inline assembly when input or output operands are
used, in which cases "@progbits" becomes "%%progbits".
Allow the section type character(s) to be defined via Makefile
variables.

There is no practical way to generate an underlength ARP packet since
an ARP packet is always padded up to the minimum Ethernet frame length
(or dropped by the receiving Ethernet hardware if incorrectly padded),
but the absence of an explicit check causes warnings from some
analysis tools.
Fix by adding an explicit check on the I/O buffer length.

The assumption in asn1_type() that an ASN.1 cursor will always contain
a type byte is incorrect. A cursor that has been cleanly invalidated
via asn1_invalidate_cursor() will contain a type byte, but there are
other ways in which to arrive at a zero-length cursor.
Fix by explicitly checking the cursor length in asn1_type(). This
allows asn1_invalidate_cursor() to be reduced to simply zeroing the
length field.

Some EoIB implementations utilise an EoIB-to-Ethernet gateway device
that does not perform a FullMember join to the multicast group for the
EoIB broadcast domain. This has various exciting side-effects, such
as requiring every EoIB node to send every broadcast packet twice.
As an added bonus, the gateway may also break the EoIB MAC address to
GID mapping protocol by sending Ethernet-sourced packets from the
wrong QPN.

[eoib] Allow the multicast group to be forcefully created
Some EoIB implementations require each individual EoIB node to create
the multicast group for the EoIB broadcast domain.
It is left as an exercise for the interested reader to determine how
such an implementation might ever allow the parameters of such a
multicast group to be changed without requiring a simultaneous upgrade
of every driver on every operating system on every machine currently
attached to the fabric.

EoIB is a fairly simple protocol in which raw Ethernet frames
(excluding the CRC) are encapsulated within Infiniband Unreliable
Datagrams, with a four-byte fixed EoIB header (which conveys no actual
information). The Ethernet broadcast domain is provided by a
multicast group, similar to the IPoIB IPv4 multicast group.
The mapping from Ethernet MAC addresses to Infiniband address vectors
is achieved by snooping incoming traffic and building a peer cache
which can then be used to map a MAC address into a port GID. The
address vector is completed using a path record lookup, as for IPoIB.
Note that this requires every packet to include a GRH.
Add basic support for EoIB devices. This driver is substantially
derived from the IPoIB driver. There is currently no mechanism for
automatically creating EoIB devices.
