[monojob] Check for job progress only once per timer tick
Checking for job progress is essentially a user interface activity,
and can safely be performed only once per timer tick (as is already
done with checking for keypresses).

Redefine the timeout parameter from "time since start of job" to "time
since progress was last made". This does not affect any existing
behaviour, since all existing users of the timeout parameter do not
provide progress indication.

[monojob] Report ongoing job status as overall return status on timeout
If a job times out then use the most recent ongoing error status
reported via job_progress() (if available) as the overall return
status.

[monojob] Check for keypresses only once per timer tick
Checking for keypresses takes a non-negligible amount of time, and
measurably affects our RTT. Minimise the impact by checking for
keypresses only once per timer tick.

[monojob] Avoid overflow when calculating percentage progress
Normalise the progress figures to ensure that multiplication by 100
(to produce a percentage) cannot result in integer overflow.

[interface] Convert all job-control interfaces to generic interfaces
Remove job-control as an interface type, and replace job-control
interfaces with generic interfaces supporting the close() method.
(Both done() and kill() are absorbed into the function of close();
kill() is merely close(-ECANCELED).)

Access to the gpxe.org and etherboot.org domains and associated
resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain. Work
around this problem by renaming project from gPXE to iPXE, and
updating URLs to match.
Also update README, LOG and COPYRIGHTS to remove obsolete information.

monojob_wait() was holding a reference to the completed job, meaning that
various objects would not be freed until the next job was plugged in to
the monojob interface.
[ui] Add progress dots while waiting on any foreground job
Print one dot per second while waiting in monojob.c (e.g. for DHCP,
for file downloads, etc.), to inform user that the system has not
locked up.
Patch contributed by Andrew Schran <aschran@google.com>, minor
modification by me.
