[xen] Set the "feature-rx-notify" flag for netfront devices
iPXE already sends RX notifications to the backend when needed, but
does not set the "feature-rx-notify" flag. As of XenServer 6.5, this
flag is mandatory and omitting it will cause the backend to fail.
Fix by setting the "feature-rx-notify" flag, to inform the backend
that we will send notifications.

At some point in the past few years, binutils became more aggressive
at removing unused symbols. To function as a symbol requirement, a
relocation record must now be in a section marked with @progbits and
must not be in a section which gets discarded during the link (either
via --gc-sections or via /DISCARD/).
Update REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to generate relocation records meeting these
criteria. To minimise the impact upon the final binary size, we use
existing symbols (specified via the REQUIRING_SYMBOL() macro) as the
relocation targets where possible. We use R_386_NONE or R_X86_64_NONE
relocation types to prevent any actual unwanted relocation taking
place. Where no suitable symbol exists for REQUIRING_SYMBOL() (such
as in config.c), the macro PROVIDE_REQUIRING_SYMBOL() can be used to
generate a one-byte-long symbol to act as the relocation target.
If there are versions of binutils for which this approach fails, then
the fallback will probably involve killing off REQUEST_SYMBOL(),
redefining REQUIRE_SYMBOL() to use the current definition of
REQUEST_SYMBOL(), and postprocessing the linked ELF file with
something along the lines of "nm -u | wc -l" to check that there are
no undefined symbols remaining.

[settings] Use list_first_entry() when unregistering child settings
Unregistering a child settings block can have almost arbitrary

The UBDL relicensing tool (util/relicense.pl) is designed to identify
files which may be relicensed under a dual GPL+UBDL licence. It uses
git-blame to identify the author of each line (using the -M and -C
options to track lines moved or copied between files), and relicenses
files for which all authors have given permission.
The relicensing tool will ignore certain types of lines identified by
git-blame:
- empty lines
- comments
- standalone opening or closing braces
- "#include ..."
- "return 0;"
- "return rc;"
- "PCI_ROM(...)"
- "FILE_LICENCE(...)"
These lines either contain no meaningful content (e.g. empty lines),
contain only non-copyrightable facts (e.g. PCI ROM IDs) or are
sufficiently common within the codebase that git-blame is likely to
misattribute their origin (e.g. "return 0").

[zbin] Fix check for existence of most recent output byte
The code in lzma_literal() checks to see if we are at the start of the
compressed input data in order to determine whether or not a most
recent output byte exists. This check is incorrect, since
initialisation of the decompressor will always consume the first five
bytes of the compressed input data.
Fix by instead checking whether or not we are at the start of the
output data stream. This is, in any case, a more logical check.
This issue was masked during development and testing since virtual
machines tend to zero the initial contents of RAM; the spuriously-read
"most recent output byte" is therefore likely to already be a zero
when running in a virtual machine.

[dhcp] Extract timing parameters out to config/dhcp.h
iPXE uses DHCP timeouts loosely based on values recommended by the
specification, but often abbreviated to reduce timeouts for reliable
and/or simple network topologies. Extract the DHCP timing parameters
to config/dhcp.h and document them. The resulting default iPXE
behavior is exactly the same, but downstreams are now afforded the
opportunity to implement spec-compliant behavior via config file
overrides.

LZMA provides significantly better compression (by ~15%) than the
current NRV2B algorithm.
We use a raw LZMA stream (aka LZMA1) to avoid the need for code to
parse the LZMA2 block headers. We use parameters {lc=2,lp=0,pb=0} to
reduce the stack space required by the decompressor to acceptable
levels (around 8kB). Using lc=3 or pb=2 would give marginally better
compression, but at the cost of substantially increasing the required
stack space.
The build process now requires the liblzma headers to be present on
the build system, since we do not include a copy of an LZMA compressor
within the iPXE source tree. The decompressor is written from scratch
(based on XZ Embedded) and is entirely self-contained within the
iPXE source.
The branch-call-jump (BCJ) filter used to improve the compressibility
is specific to iPXE. We choose not to use liblzma's built-in BCJ
filter since the algorithm is complex and undocumented. Our BCJ
filter achieves approximately the same results (on typical iPXE
binaries) with a substantially simpler algorithm.

[prefix] Use .bss16 as temporary stack space for calls to install_block
Some decompression algorithms (e.g. LZMA) require large amounts of
temporary stack space, which may not be made available by all
prefixes. Use .bss16 as a temporary stack for the duration of the
calls to install_block (switching back to the external stack before we
start making calls into code which might access variables in .bss16),
and allow the decompressor to define a global symbol to force a
minimum value on the size of .bss16.
