[legal] Relicense files under GPL2_OR_LATER_OR_UBDL
These files cannot be automatically relicensed by util/relicense.pl
since they either contain unusual but trivial contributions (such as
the addition of __nonnull function attributes), or contain lines
dating back to the initial git revision (and so require manual
knowledge of the code's origin).

[job] Allow job_progress() to return an ongoing job status code, if known
Some background jobs have a meaningful ongoing status code (e.g. the
current link status for a job waiting for a network link to come up).
Allow this to be exposed via the job_progress() method.

Refactor the {load,exec} image operations as {probe,exec}. This makes
the probe mechanism cleaner, eliminates some forward declarations,
avoids holding magic state in image->priv, eliminates the possibility
of screwing up between the "load" and "exec" stages, and makes the
documentation simpler since the concept of "loading" (as distinct from
"executing") no longer needs to be explained.

[image] Allow download job to complete before acting upon image
Allow the monojob controlling the download to complete before calling
register_image() and friends. This allows the trailing "ok" from
monojob.c to be printed before the image starts executing (and
possibly printing output of its own).

[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.

[interface] Convert all data-xfer interfaces to generic interfaces
Remove data-xfer as an interface type, and replace data-xfer
interfaces with generic interfaces supporting the data-xfer methods.
Filter interfaces (as used by the TLS layer) are handled using the
generic pass-through interface capability. A side-effect of this is
that deliver_raw() no longer exists as a data-xfer method. (In
practice this doesn't lose any efficiency, since there are no
instances within the current codebase where xfer_deliver_raw() is used
to pass data to an interface supporting the deliver_raw() method.)

[interface] Convert all job-control interfaces to generic interfaces
Remove job-control as an interface type, and replace job-control
interfaces with generic interfaces supporting the close() method.
(Both done() and kill() are absorbed into the function of close();
kill() is merely close(-ECANCELED).)

Standardise on using ref_init() to initialise an embedded reference
count, to match the coding style used by other embedded objects.

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.

Modify data-xfer semantics: it is no longer necessary to call one of
request(), seek() or deliver_xxx() in order to start the data flow.
Autonomous generators must be genuinely autonomous (having their own
process), or otherwise arrange to be called. TCP does this by
starting the retry timer immediately.
Add some debugging statements.
Do not hold self-references. This then avoids the problem of having to
ensure that we only drop our self-reference exactly once.
To maintain the guarantee that an object won't go out of scope
unexpectedly while one of its event handlers is being called, the
event-calling functions now automatically obtain and drop extra
references.
