[legal] Relicense files under GPL2_OR_LATER_OR_UBDL
These files cannot be automatically relicensed by util/relicense.pl
since they either contain unusual but trivial contributions (such as
the addition of __nonnull function attributes), or contain lines
dating back to the initial git revision (and so require manual
knowledge of the code's origin).

Add basic support for Xen PV-HVM domains (detected via the Xen
platform PCI device with IDs 5853:0001), including support for
accessing configuration via XenStore and enumerating devices via
XenBus.

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.

[settings] Expose CPUID instruction via settings mechanism
Allow CPUID values to be read using the syntax
${cpuid/<register>.<function>}
For example, ${cpuid/2.0x80000001} will give the value of %ecx after
calling CPUID with %eax=0x80000001. Values for <register> are encoded
as %eax=0, %ebx=1, %ecx=2, %edx=3.
The numeric encoding is more sophisticated than described above,
allowing for settings such as the CPU model (obtained by calling CPUID
with %eax=0x80000002-0x80000004 inclusive and concatenating the values
returned in %eax:%ebx:%ecx:%edx). See the source code for details.
The "cpuvendor" and "cpumodel" settings provide easy access to these
more complex CPUID settings.
This functionality is intended to complement the "cpuid" command,
which allows for testing individual CPUID feature bits.

[vmware] Allow settings to be specified in the VMware .vmx file
Allow iPXE settings to be specified in the .vmx file via the VMware
GuestInfo mechanism. For example:
guestinfo.ipxe.filename = "http://boot.ipxe.org/demo/boot.php"
guestinfo.ipxe.dns = "192.168.0.1"
guestinfo.ipxe.net0.ip = "192.168.0.15"
guestinfo.ipxe.net0.netmask = "255.255.255.0"
guestinfo.ipxe.net0.gateway = "192.168.0.1"

Allow an initrd (such as an embedded script) to be passed to iPXE when
loaded as a .lkrn (or .iso) image. This allows an embedded script to
be varied without recompiling iPXE.

[pxe] Separate parent PXE API caller from UNDINET driver
Calling the parent PXE stack (the stack that loaded us, for
undionly.kkpxe) can be useful for more than UNDI calls; for instance,
it lets us get cached DHCP packets to avoid re-DHCP when working with
embedded images.

[comboot] Allow for tail recursion of COMBOOT images
Multi-level menus via COMBOOT rely on the COMBOOT program being able
to exit and invoke a new COMBOOT program (the next menu). This works,
but rapidly (within about five iterations) runs out of space in gPXE's
internal stack, since each new image is executed in a new function
context.
Fix by allowing tail recursion between images; an image can now
specify a replacement image for itself, and image_exec() will perform
the necessary tail recursion.
[efi] Use EFI-native mechanism for accessing SMBIOS table
EFI provides a copy of the SMBIOS table accessible via the EFI system
table, which we should use instead of manually scanning through the
F000:0000 segment.
[ELF] Add ability to boot ELF images generated by wraplinux and mkelfImage
Delete ELF as a generic image type. The method for invoking an
ELF-based image (as well as any tables that must be set up to allow it
to boot) will always depend on the specific architecture. core/elf.c
now only provides the elf_load() function, to avoid duplicating
functionality between ELF-based image types.
Add arch/i386/image/elfboot.c, to handle the generic case of 32-bit
x86 ELF images. We don't currently set up any multiboot tables, ELF
notes, etc. This seems to be sufficient for loading kernels generated
using both wraplinux and coreboot's mkelfImage.
Note that while Etherboot 5.4 allowed ELF images to return, we don't.
There is no callback mechanism for the loaded image to shut down gPXE,
which means that we have to shut down before invoking the image. This
means that we lose device state, protection against being trampled on,
etc. It is not safe to continue afterwards.
