[prefix] Use 16-bit protected mode for access to high memory
Flat real mode works perfectly on real hardware, but seems to cause
problems for some hypervisors. Revert to using 16-bit protected mode
(and returning to real mode with 4GB limits, so as not to break PMM
BIOSes).
Allow the code specific to the .mrom format to continue to assume that
flat real mode works, since this format is specific to real hardware.

[pxe] Avoid touching fields that may not exist in PXENV_UNDI_GET_NIC_TYPE
Earlier versions of the PXE specification do not have the SubVendor_ID

Avoid overwriting the contents of these fields, just in case.
This is similar to the problem with the BufferLimit field in

[libflat] Test A20 gate without switching to flat real mode
Use the real-mode address ffff:0010 to access the linear address
0x100000, and so test whether or not the A20 gate is enabled without
requiring a switch into flat real mode (or some other addressing
mode).
This speeds up CPU mode transitions, and also avoids breaking the NBP
from IBM's Tivoli Provisioning Manager for Operating System
Deployment. This NBP makes some calls to iPXE in VM86 mode rather
than true real mode and does not correctly emulate our transition into
flat real mode.
Interestingly, Tivoli's VMM *does* allow us to switch into protected
mode (though it patches our GDT so that we execute in ring 1 rather
than ring 0). However, paging is still disabled and we have a 4GB
segment limit. Being in ring 1 does not, therefore, restrict us in
any meaningful way; this has been verified by deliberately writing
garbage over Tivoli's own GDT (at address 0x02201010) during a
nominally VM86-mode PXE API call. It's unclear precisely what
protection this VMM is supposed to be offering.

[undi] Support underlying UNDI devices that don't support interrupts
Some network cards do not generate interrupts when operated via the
UNDI API. Allow for this by waiting for the ISR to be triggered only
if the PXE stack advertises that it supports interrupts. When the PXE
stack does not advertise interrupt support, we skip the call to
PXENV_UNDI_ISR_IN_START and just poll the device using
PXENV_UNDI_ISR_IN_PROCESS. This matches the observed behaviour of at
least one other PXE NBP (emBoot's winBoot/i), so there is a reasonable
chance of this working.

[block] Replace gPXE block-device API with an iPXE asynchronous interface
The block device interface used in gPXE predates the invention of even
the old gPXE data-transfer interface, let alone the current iPXE
generic asynchronous interface mechanism. Bring this old code up to
date, with the following benefits:
o Block device commands can be cancelled by the requestor. The INT 13
layer uses this to provide a global timeout on all INT 13 calls,
with the result that an unexpected passive failure mode (such as
an iSCSI target ACKing the request but never sending a response)
will lead to a timeout that gets reported back to the INT 13 user,
rather than simply freezing the system.
o INT 13,00 (reset drive) is now able to reset the underlying block
device. INT 13 users, such as DOS, that use INT 13,00 as a method
for error recovery now have a chance of recovering.
o All block device commands are tagged, with a numerical tag that
will show up in debugging output and in packet captures; this will
allow easier interpretation of bug reports that include both
sources of information.
o The extremely ugly hacks used to generate the boot firmware tables
have been eradicated and replaced with a generic acpi_describe()
method (exploiting the ability of iPXE interfaces to pass through
methods to an underlying interface). The ACPI tables are now
built in a shared data block within .bss16, rather than each
requiring dedicated space in .data16.
o The architecture-independent concept of a SAN device has been
exposed to the iPXE core through the sanboot API, which provides
calls to hook, unhook, boot, and describe SAN devices. This
allows for much more flexible usage patterns (such as hooking an
empty SAN device and then running an OS installer via TFTP).

[xfer] Generalise metadata "whence" field to "flags" field
iPXE has never supported SEEK_END; the usage of "whence" offers only
the options of SEEK_SET and SEEK_CUR and so is effectively a boolean
flag. Further flags will be required to support additional metadata
required by the Fibre Channel network model, so repurpose the "whence"
field as a generic "flags" field.
xfer_seek() has always been used with SEEK_SET, so remove the "whence"
field altogether from its argument list.

COM32 binaries generally expect to run with interrupts
enabled. Syslinux does so, and COM32 programs will execute cli/sti
pairs when running a critical section, to provide mutual exclusion
against BIOS interrupt handlers. Previously, under iPXE, the IDT was
not valid, so any interrupt (e.g. a timer tick) would generally cause
the machine to triple fault.
This change introduces code to:
- Create a valid IDT at the same location that syslinux uses
- Create an "interrupt jump buffer", which contains small pieces of
code that simply record the vector number and jump to a common
handler
- Thunk down to real mode and execute the BIOS's interrupt handler
whenever an interrupt is received in a COM32 program
- Switch IDTs and enable/disable interrupts when context switching to
and from COM32 binaries
Testing done:
- Booted VMware ESX using a COM32 multiboot loader (mboot.c32)
- Built with GDBSERIAL enabled, and tested breakpoints on int22 and
com32_irq
- Put the following code in a COM32 program:
asm volatile ( "sti" );
while ( 1 );
Before this change, the machine would triple fault
immediately. After this change, it hangs as expected. Under Bochs,
it is possible to see the interrupt handler run, and the current
time in the BIOS data area gets incremented.

[build] Fix broken build caused by implied dependency upon "perl"
Commit ea12dc0 ("[build] Avoid hard-coding the path to perl")
introduced a build failure for fully clean trees (e.g. after running
"make veryclean"), since the dependency upon $(PARSEROM) now includes
a dependency upon "perl" (which doesn't exist) rather than upon
"/usr/bin/perl" (which does exist).
There should of course be no dependency upon the perl binary at all;
the dependency should be upon "./util/parserom.pl" alone.
Fix by removing the $(PERL) from the definition of Perl-based utility
paths, and adding $(PERL) at the point of usage.
