[ipv6] Automatically choose source for link-local and multicast destinations
When transmitting to a link-local or multicast destination address,
use the network device's link-local address as the source address if
no explicit source address has been specified.

Add generic pinger mechanism (analogous to the generic downloader
mechanism) which opens a ping socket, transmits ping requests, and
passes information about ping replies to a callback function.

Merge common functionality between IPv4 and IPv6 ICMP echo handling,
and add support for transmitting ICMP echo requests and delivering
ICMP echo replies to a (not yet implemented) ping_rx() function.

Commit 238050d ("[build] Work around bug in gcc >= 4.8") works around
one instance of a bug in recent versions of gcc, in which "ebp" cannot
be specified within an asm clobber list.
Some versions of gcc seem to exhibit the same bug on other points in
the codebase. Fix by changing all instances of "ebp" in a clobber
list to use the push/pop %ebp workaround instead.

The path MTU is currently hardcoded to 1460 bytes, which fails to
allow space for TCP options. Sending a maximum-sized datagram (which
is viable when using HTTP POST) will therefore fail since the Ethernet
MTU will be exceeded.
Reduce the hardcoded path MTU to produce a maximum datagram of 1280
bytes, which is the size required of data link layers by IPv6. It is
a reasonable assumption that all intermediary data link layers will be
able to convey this packet without fragmentation, even for IPv4.
Note that this reduction has a minimal impact upon download
throughput, since it affects only the transmit data path.

Replace the existing partially-implemented IPv6 stack with a fresh
implementation.
This implementation is not yet complete. The IPv6 transmit and
receive datapaths are functional (including fragment reassembly and
parsing of arbitrary extension headers). NDP neighbour solicitations
and advertisements are supported. ICMPv6 echo is supported.
At present, only link-local addresses may be used, and there is no way
to specify an IPv6 address as part of a URI (either directly or via
a DNS lookup).

[neighbour] Generalise concept of neighbour discovery

IPv6 link-local socket addresses require some way to specify a local
network device. We cannot simply use a pointer to the network device,
since a struct sockaddr_in6 may be long-lived and has no way to hold a
reference to the network device.
Using a network device index allows a socket address to cleanly refer
to a network device without worrying about whether or not that device
continues to exist.

Allow HTTP POST requests to be generated when the URI includes a
parameter list. For example:
#!ipxe
params
param mac ${net0/mac}
param uuid ${uuid}
param asset ${asset}
chain http://boot.ipxe.org/demo/boot.php##params

HTTP POST requires the ability to associate a parameter list with a
URI. There is no standardised syntax for this. Use a non-standard
URI syntax to incorporate the specification of a parameter list within
a URI:
URI = [ absoluteURI | relativeURI ]
[ "#" fragment ] [ "##params" [ "=" paramsName ] ]
e.g.
http://boot.ipxe.org/demo/boot.php##paramshttp://boot.ipxe.org/demo/boot.php##params=mylist

[settings] Expose memory map via settings mechanism
Allow memory map entries to be read using the syntax
${memmap/<region>.<properties>.<scale>}
where <region> is the index of the memory region, <properties> is a
bitmask where bit 0 represents the start address and bit 1 represents
the length (allowing the end address to be encoded by having both bits
0 and 1 set), and <scale> is the number of bits by which to shift the
result.
This allows for several values of interest to be encoded. For
example:
${memmap/<region>.1.0:hexraw} # 64-bit start address of <region>
${memmap/<region>.2.0:hexraw} # 64-bit length of <region>, in bytes
${memmap/<region>.3.0:hexraw} # 64-bit end address of <region>
${memmap/<region>.2.10:int32} # Length of <region>, in kB
${memmap/<region>.2.20:int32} # Length of <region>, in MB
The numeric encoding is slightly more sophisticated than described
here, allowing a single encoding to cover multiple regions. (See the
source code for details.) The primary use case for this feature is to
provide the total system memory size (in MB) via the "memsize"
predefined setting.

[settings] Expose CPUID instruction via settings mechanism
Allow CPUID values to be read using the syntax
${cpuid/<register>.<function>}
For example, ${cpuid/2.0x80000001} will give the value of %ecx after
calling CPUID with %eax=0x80000001. Values for <register> are encoded
as %eax=0, %ebx=1, %ecx=2, %edx=3.
The numeric encoding is more sophisticated than described above,
allowing for settings such as the CPU model (obtained by calling CPUID
with %eax=0x80000002-0x80000004 inclusive and concatenating the values
returned in %eax:%ebx:%ecx:%edx). See the source code for details.
The "cpuvendor" and "cpumodel" settings provide easy access to these
more complex CPUID settings.
This functionality is intended to complement the "cpuid" command,
which allows for testing individual CPUID feature bits.
