Update the DNS resolver to support DNS search lists (as provided by
DHCP option 119, DHCPv6 option 24, or NDP option 31).
Add validation code to ensure that parsing of DNS packets does not
overrun the input, get stuck in infinite loops, or (worse) write
beyond the end of allocated buffers.

[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.

[settings] Make "netX" settings block function as a symbolic link
Add a facility for settings blocks to act as symbolic links to other
settings blocks, and reimplement the "netX" virtual settings block
using this facility.
The primary advantage of this approach is that unscoped settings such
as ${mac} and ${filename} will now reflect the settings obtained from
the most recently opened network device: in most cases, this will mean
the settings obtained from the most recent DHCP attempt. This should
improve conformance to the principle of least astonishment.

[settings] Use a generic setting's own type as its default type
When fetching a named setting using a name that does not explicitly
specify a type, default to using the type stored when the setting was
created, rather than always defaulting to "string". This allows the
behaviour of user-defined settings to match the behaviour of
predefined settings (which have a sensible default type).
For example:
set server:ipv4 192.168.0.1
echo ${server}
will now print "192.168.0.1", rather than trying to print out the raw
IPv4 address bytes as a string.
The downside of this change is that existing tricks for printing
special characters within scripts may require (backwards-compatible)
modification. For example, the "clear screen" sequence:
set esc:hex 1b
set cls ${esc}[2J
echo ${cls}
will now have to become
set esc:hex 1b
set cls ${esc:string}[2J # Must now explicitly specify ":string"
echo ${cls}

[crypto] Allow trusted root certificate to be changed without a rebuild
Changing the trusted root certificate currently requires a rebuild of
the iPXE binary, which may be inconvenient or impractical.
Allow the list of trusted root certificate fingerprints to be
overridden using the "trust" setting, but only at the point of iPXE
initialisation. This prevents untrusted sources of settings
(e.g. DHCP) from subverting the chain of trust, while allowing
trustworthy sources to change the trusted root certificate without
requiring a rebuild.
The basic idea is that if you are able to manipulate a trustworthy
source of settings (e.g. VMware GuestInfo or non-volatile stored
options), then you would be able to replace the iPXE binary anyway,
and so no security is lost by allowing such sources to override the
list of trusted root certificates.

[settings] Display canonical setting name in output of "show" command
Enable the "show" command to display the full, canonicalised name of
the fetched setting. For example:
iPXE> show mac
net0/mac:hex = 52:54:00:12:34:56
iPXE> dhcp && show ip
DHCP (net0 52:54:00:12:34:56)... ok
net0.dhcp/ip:ipv4 = 10.0.0.168
iPXE> show net0/6
net0.dhcp/dns:ipv4 = 10.0.0.6

[tables] Incorporate table data type information into table definition
Eliminate the potential for mismatches between table names and the
table entry data type by incorporating the data type into the
definition of the table, rather than specifying it explicitly in each
table accessor method.
[tables] Redefine methods for accessing linker tables
Intel's C compiler (icc) chokes on the zero-length arrays that we
currently use as part of the mechanism for accessing linker table
entries. Abstract away the zero-length arrays, to make a port to icc
easier.
Introduce macros such as for_each_table_entry() to simplify the common
case of iterating over all entries in a linker table.
Represent table names as #defined string constants rather than
unquoted literals; this avoids visual confusion between table names
and C variable or type names, and also allows us to force a
compilation error in the event of incorrect table names.
[settings] Allow for autovivification of settings blocks
Allow for settings blocks to be created on demand. This allows for
constructions such as
set defaults/filename http://bootserver/bootfile
set defaults/priority 0xff
dhcp net0
chain ${filename}
which will boot from the DHCP-provided filename, or from
"http://bootserver/bootfile" if the DHCP server does not provide a
filename.
(Note that "priority" gets interpreted as a signed integer, so setting
"defaults/priority" to 0xff will cause the "defaults" settings block
to have an effective priority of -1.)
The DHCP client code now implements only the mechanism of the DHCP and
PXE Boot Server protocols. Boot Server Discovery can be initiated
manually using the "pxebs" command. The menuing code is separated out
into a user-level function on a par with boot_root_path(), and is
entered in preference to a normal filename boot if the DHCP vendor
class is "PXEClient" and the PXE boot menu option exists.
Try to qualify relative names in the DNS resolver using the DHCP Domain
Name. For example:
DHCP Domain Name: etherboot.org
(Relative) Name: www
yields:
www.etherboot.org
Only names with no dots ('.') will be modified. A name with one or more
dots is unchanged.
[settings] Add the notion of a "tag magic" to numbered settings
Settings can be constructed using a dotted-decimal notation, to allow
for access to unnamed settings. The default interpretation is as a
DHCP option number (with encapsulated options represented as
"<encapsulating option>.<encapsulated option>".
In several contexts (e.g. SMBIOS, Phantom CLP), it is useful to
interpret the dotted-decimal notation as referring to non-DHCP
options. In this case, it becomes necessary for these contexts to
ignore standard DHCP options, otherwise we end up trying to, for
example, retrieve the boot filename from SMBIOS.
Allow settings blocks to specify a "tag magic". When dotted-decimal
notation is used to construct a setting, the tag magic value of the
originating settings block will be ORed in to the tag number.
Store/fetch methods can then check for the magic number before
interpreting arbitrarily-numbered settings.
