[int13] Add infrastructure to support EDD version 4.0
Support the extensions mandated by EDD 4.0, including:
o the ability to specify a flat physical address in a disk address
packet,
o the ability to specify a sector count greater than 127 in a disk
address packet,
o support for all functions within the Fixed Disk Access and EDD
Support subsets,
o the ability to describe a device using EDD Device Path Information.
This implementation is based on draft revision 3 of the EDD 4.0
specification, with reference to the EDD 3.0 specification. It is
possible that this implementation may need to change in order to
conform to the final published EDD 4.0 specification.

[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).)

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resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain.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

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.
