Allow for equivalent IPv4 and IPv6 settings (which requires equivalent
settings to be adjacent within the settings list).

[settings] Allow for multiple definitions of each predefined setting
Allow for multiple setting definitions with the same name but
different scopes and tags. For example, allow for a "filename"
setting with default scope and tag value 67 (for DHCPv4) and a
corresponding "filename" setting with IPv6 scope and tag value 59 (for
DHCPv6).

Note that IANA has not yet assigned a DHCPv6 option code for the
syslog server. When a code is assigned, the definition of
DHCPV6_LOG_SERVERS should be updated. Until then, an IPv6 address of
a syslog server can be configured manually using e.g.
set syslog6 3ffe:302:11:2::8309

[dns] Add support for resolving IPv6 addresses via AAAA records
Our policy is to prefer IPv6 addreses to IPv4 addresses, but to
request IPv6 addresses only if we have an IPv6 address for the name
server itself.

[settings] Allow for IPv6 setting types in non-IPv6 builds
Allow for the existence of references to IPv6 setting types without
dragging in the whole IPv6 stack, by placing the definition of
setting_type_ipv6 in core/settings.c and providing weak stub methods
for parse_ipv6_setting() and format_ipv6_setting().

[settings] Explicitly separate the concept of a completed fetched setting
The fetch_setting() family of functions may currently modify the
definition of the specified setting (e.g. to add missing type
information). Clean up this interface by requiring callers to provide
an explicit buffer to contain the completed definition of the fetched
setting, if required.

[console] Allow '?' as an intermediate byte in ANSI escape sequences
The ANSI escape sequences to show and hide the cursor take the form
"<ESC>[?25h" and "<ESC>[?25l" respectively. iPXE currently treats the
'?' character as the final byte. Fix by explicitly treating '?' as an
intermediate byte.

OpenBSD 5.4 seems to generate dynamically linked binaries by default,
which breaks our build process. Fix by forcing the linker to always
create static binaries.

[vesafb] Select an optimal mode, rather than the first acceptable mode
There is no requirement for VBE modes to be listed in increasing order
of resolution. With the present logic, this can cause e.g. a 1024x768
mode to be selected if the user asks for 640x480, if the 1024x768 mode
is earlier in the mode list.
Define a scoring system for modes as
score = ( width * height - bpp )
and choose the mode with the lowest score among all acceptable modes.
This should prefer to choose the mode closest to the requested
resolution, with a slight preference for higher colour depths.

[vesafb] Skip modes for which we cannot get mode information
The VirtualBox BIOS fails to retrieve mode information (with status
0x0100) for some modes within the mode list. Skip any such modes,
rather than treating this as a fatal error.

The VESA frame buffer console uses the VESA BIOS extensions (VBE) to
enumerate video modes, selects an appropriate mode, and then hands off
to the generic frame buffer code.
The font is extracted from the VGA BIOS, avoiding the need to provide
an external font file.

Syslinux 6.x places its files into a bios subdirectory, and requires

[dhcpv6] Add basic support for stateful and stateless DHCPv6
Add support for the stateful and stateless variants of the DHCPv6
protocol. The resulting settings block is registered as
"net<x>.dhcpv6", and DHCPv6 options can be obtained using
e.g. "${net0.dhcpv6/23:ipv6}" to obtain the IPv6 DNS server address.
IPv6 addresses obtained via stateful DHCPv6 are not yet applied to the
network device.

[pxe] Ensure cached DHCPACK is retrieved prior to network device creation
The retrieval of the cached DHCPACK and the creation of network
devices are both currently scheduled as STARTUP_NORMAL. It is
therefore possible that the cached DHCPACK will not be retrieved in
time for cachedhcp_probe() to apply it to the relevant network device.
Fix by retrieving the cached DHCPACK at initialisation time rather
than at startup time.
As an optimisation, an unclaimed cached DHCPACK can be freed
immediately after the last network device has been created, rather
than waiting until shutdown.

Include IPv6 within the generic network device configurator
mechanism. The IPv6 configurator will send a router solicitation and
wait for a router advertisement to be received. (As per RFC4861
section 6.3.7, we do this even if advertisements have been received
prior to sending the router solicitation.)
