[netdevice] Allow link layer to report broadcast/multicast packets via pull()
Allow the link layer to directly report whether or not a packet is
multicast or broadcast at the time of calling pull(), rather than
relying on heuristics to determine this at a later stage.

[netdevice] Pass both link-layer addresses in net_tx() and net_rx()
FCoE requires the use of fabric-provided MAC addresses, which breaks
the assumption that the net device's MAC address is implicitly the
source address for net_tx() and the (unicast) destination address for
net_rx().

[build] Fix misaligned table entries when using gcc 4.5
Declarations without the accompanying __table_entry cause misalignment
of the table entries when using gcc 4.5. Fix by adding the
appropriate __table_entry macro or (where possible) by removing
unnecessary forward declarations.

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resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain.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

[tcpip] Allow for transmission to multicast IPv4 addresses
When sending to a multicast address, it may be necessary to specify
the source address explicitly, since the multicast destination address
does not provide enough information to deduce the source address via
the miniroute table.
Allow the source address specified via the data-xfer metadata to be
passed down through the TCP/IP stack to the IPv4 layer, which can use
it as a default source address.
