pcbios specific get_memmap() is used by the b44 driver making
all-drivers builds fail on other platforms. Move it to the I/O API
group and provide a dummy implementation on EFI.

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resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain.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.

[i386] Simplify linker script and standardise linker-defined symbol names
Reduce the number of sections within the linker script to match the
number of practical sections within the output file.
Define _section, _msection, _esection, _section_filesz, _section_memsz,
and _section_lma for each section, replacing the mixture of symbols that
previously existed.
In particular, replace _text and _end with _textdata and _etextdata, to
make it explicit within code that uses these symbols that the .text and
.data sections are always treated as a single contiguous block.
[pcbios] Add facility for testing arbitrary E820 memory maps
We seem to be having issues with various E820 memory maps. These
problems are often difficult to reproduce, requiring access to the
specific system exhibiting the problem.
Add a facility for hooking in a fake E820 map generator, using an
arbitrary map defined in a C array, solely in order to be able to test
the map-mangling code against arbitrary E820 maps.
[pcbios] Inhibit INT 15 memory map hiding on brain-dead BIOSes
Some really moronic BIOSes bring up the PXE stack via the UNDI loader
entry point during POST, and then don't bother to unload it before
overwriting the code and data segments. If this happens, we really
don't want to leave INT 15 hooked, because that will cause any loaded
OS to die horribly as soon as it attempts to fetch the system memory
map.
We use a heuristic to detect whether or not we are being loaded at the
top of free base memory. If we determine that we are being loaded at
some other arbitrary location in base memory, then we assume that it's
not safe to hook INT 15.
[pcbios] Support arbitrary splits of the e820 memory map
Allow for an arbitrary number of splits of the system memory map via
INT 15,e820.
Features of the new map-mangling algorithm include:
Supports random access to e820 map entries.
Requires only sequential access support from the underlying e820
map, even if our caller uses random access.
Empty regions will always be stripped.
Always terminates with %ebx=0, even if the underlying map terminates
with CF=1.
Allows for an arbitrary number of hidden regions, with underlying
regions split into as many subregions as necessary.
Total size increase to achieve this is 193 bytes.
[iSCSI] Support Windows Server 2008 direct iSCSI installation
Add yet another ugly hack to iscsiboot.c, this time to allow the user to
inhibit the shutdown/removal of the iSCSI INT13 device (and the network
devices, since they are required for the iSCSI device to function).
On the plus side, the fact that shutdown() now takes flags to
differentiate between shutdown-for-exit and shutdown-for-boot means that
another ugly hack (to allow returning via the PXE stack on BIOSes that
have broken INT 18 calls) will be easier.
I feel dirty.
We don't actually have a stdio.h header file. Our printf() functions are
defined in vsprintf.h. (This may change, since vsprintf.h is a
non-standard name, but for now it's the one to use.)
There should be no need to include vsprintf.h just for DBG() statements,
since include/compiler.h forces it in for a debug build anyway.
