[build] Refuse to attempt building with the GNU gold linker
GNU gold (part of newer binutils builds) does not appear to be
designed to support generic linker functionality, since its source
code contains several Linux-specific hard-coded assumptions about the
layout of ELF binaries. Attempting to build iPXE using GNU gold will
generally cause some kind of "linker internal error".
Provide an explicit error message suggesting the use of GNU ld
instead.

[tcp] Update ts_recent whenever window is advanced
Commit 3f442d3 ("[tcp] Record ts_recent on first received packet")
failed to achieve its stated intention.
Fix this (and reduce the code size) by moving the ts_recent update to
tcp_rx_seq(). This is the code responsible for advancing the window,
called by both tcp_rx_syn() and tcp_rx_data(), and so the window check
is now redundant.

Commit b5f5f73 ("[cmdline] Expand settings within each command-line
token individually") introduced a regression into the "isset" command:
it is now possible for command-line arguments to be empty strings, and
so "isset" cannot simply check for a non-empty argument list.
Restore previous behaviour by checking for the presence of any
non-empty arguments, rather than checking for a non-empty argument
list.

[build] Avoid generating ROMs with "match-any" vendor or device IDs
A PCI_ROM() entry containing a vendor or device ID of PCI_ANY_ID
(0xffff) indicates to pci_find_driver() that the entry's vendor or
device ID should be ignored when matching against the device's vendor
or device ID. It does not represent a PCI ROM that should be built.

[build] Include only one copy of each ROM in "make allroms"
Each PCI ROM currently ends up appearing twice in the $(ROMS) list:

Include only the latter of these in the $(ROMS) list, so that doing
"make allroms" will generate only one copy of each ROM.

[forcedeth] Never change the NVREG_TRANSMITPOLL_MAC_ADDR_REV flag
iPXE operates the forcedeth NIC in promiscuous mode, and never changes
the unicast MAC address filter registers. We should not therefore set
the flag indicating (to other drivers loaded later) that the MAC
address order has already been corrected.

[forcedeth] Remove software unicast MAC address filter
The forcedeth driver currently implements unicast MAC address
filtering in software. This is almost invariably the wrong thing to
do (since the network stack must already be able to cope with unwanted
packets) and it breaks FCoE (which requires the card to operate in
promiscuous mode).
Also, the implementation is buggy: is_local_ether_addr() is used to
check for a locally-assigned Ethernet address (not to check for a
unicast address), and the current link-layer address is in
netdev->ll_addr, not netdev->hw_addr.
Fix by removing this code.

A scriptlet is a single iPXE command that can be stored in
non-volatile option storage and used to override the default
"autoboot" behaviour without having to reflash the iPXE image.
For example, a scriptlet could contain
autoboot || reboot
to instruct iPXE to reboot the system if booting fails.
Unlike an embedded image, the presence of a scriptlet does not inhibit
the initial "Press Ctrl-B..." prompt. This allows the user to recover
from setting a faulty scriptlet.

FreeBSD.

[undi] Cope with devices that erroneously claim not to use interrupts
Some PXE stacks advertise that interrupts are not supported, despite
requiring the use of interrupts. Attempt to cope with such cards
without breaking others by always hooking the interrupt, and using the
"interrupts supported" flag only to decide whether or not to wait for
an interrupt before calling PXENV_UNDI_ISR_IN_PROCESS.
The possible combinations are therefore:
1. Card generates interrupts and claims to support interrupts
iPXE will call PXENV_UNDI_ISR_IN_PROCESS only after an interrupt
has been observed. (This is required to avoid lockups in some PXE
stacks, which spuriously sulk if called before an interrupt has
been generated.)
Such a card should work correctly.
2. Card does not generate interrupts and does not claim to support
interrupts
iPXE will call PXENV_UNDI_ISR_IN_PROCESS indiscriminately, matching
the observed behaviour of at least one other PXE NBP (winBoot/i).
Such a card should work correctly.
3. Card generates interrupts but claims not to support interrupts
iPXE will call PXENV_UNDI_ISR_IN_PROCESS indiscriminately. An
interrupt will still result in a call to PXENV_UNDI_ISR_IN_START.
Such a card may work correctly.
4. Card does not generate interrupts but claims to support interrupts
Such a card will not work at all.
