[pxe] Populate ciaddr in fake PXE Boot Server ACK packet
We currently do not populate the ciaddr field in the constructed PXE
Boot Server ACK packet. This causes a WDS server to respond with a
broadcast packet, which is then ignored by wdsmgfw.efi since it does
not match the specified IP address filter.
Fix by populating ciaddr within the constructed PXE Boot Server ACK
packet.

[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.

[dhcp] Use a random DHCP transaction identifier (xid)
iPXE currently uses the last four bytes of the MAC address as the DHCP
transaction identifier. Reduce the probability of collisions by
generating a random transaction identifier.

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resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain.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

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.
Pick out the first boot menu item from the boot menu (option 43.9) and
pass it to the boot server as the boot menu item (option 43.71).
Also improve DHCP debug messages to include more details of the
packets being transmitted.
[dhcp] Add preliminary support for PXE Boot Servers
Some PXE configurations require us to perform a third DHCP transaction
(in addition to the real DHCP transaction and the ProxyDHCP
transaction) in order to retrieve information from a "Boot Server".
This is an experimental implementation, since the actual behaviour is
not well specified in the PXE spec.
[pxe] If no ProxyDHCPACK exists, use DHCPACK for the fake ProxyDHCPACK packet
WinPE seems to have a bug that causes it to always use the TFTP server
IP address and filename from the ProxyDHCPACK packet, even if the
ProxyDHCPACK packet doesn't exist. This causes it to end up
attempting to fetch a file such as
tftp://0.0.0.0/bootmgr.exe
If we don't have a ProxyDHCPACK to use, we pretend that it was a copy
of the DHCPACK packet. This works around the problem, and hopefully
won't surprise any NBPs.
The PXE spec is (as usual) unclear on precisely when ProxyDHCPREQUESTs
should be issued. We adapt the following, slightly paranoid approach:
If an offer contains an IP address, then it is a normal DHCPOFFER.
If an offer contains an option #60 "PXEClient", then it is a
ProxyDHCPOFFER. Note that the same packet can be both a normal
DHCPOFFER and a ProxyDHCPOFFER.
After receiving the normal DHCPACK, if we have received a
ProxyDHCPOFFER, we unicast a ProxyDHCPREQUEST back to the ProxyDHCP
server on port 4011. If we time out waiting for a ProxyDHCPACK, we
treat this as a non-fatal error.
[Settings] Remove assumption that all settings have DHCP tag values
Allow for settings to be described by something other than a DHCP option
tag if desirable. Currently used only for the MAC address setting.
Separate out fake DHCP packet creation code from dhcp.c to fakedhcp.c.
Remove notion of settings from dhcppkt.c.
Rationalise dhcp.c to use settings API only for final registration of the
DHCP options, rather than using {store,fetch}_setting throughout.
