Pass the settings block name as a parameter to register_settings(),
rather than defining it with settings_init() (and then possibly
changing it by directly manipulating settings->name).

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resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain.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

When a DHCP session is started (using autoboot or a command-line `dhcp
net0'), check whether the new setting use-cached (DHCP option 175.178)
is TRUE; if so, skip DHCP and rely on currently registered
settings. This lets one combine a static IP with autoboot.

Before checking the use-cached setting, call a weak
get_cached_dhcpack() hook that can be implemented by particular builds
of gPXE supporting some fashion of retrieving a cached DHCPACK packet.
If one is available, it is registered as an options source, and then
either that packet's option 175.178 or the user's prior manual
use-cached setting can allow skipping duplicate DHCP.

Using cached packets is not the default because DHCP servers are often
configured to give gPXE different options than they give a vendor PXE
client; in order to break the infinite loop of PXE chaining, one would
need to load a gPXE with an embedded image that does something more
than autoboot.
