Allow the active timer (providing udelay() and currticks()) to be
selected at runtime based on probing during the INIT_EARLY stage of
initialisation.

TICKS_PER_SEC is now a fixed compile-time constant for all builds, and
is independent of the underlying clock tick rate.  We choose the value
1024 to allow multiplications and divisions on seconds to be converted
to bit shifts.

TICKS_PER_MS is defined as 1, allowing multiplications and divisions
on milliseconds to be omitted entirely.  The 2% inaccuracy in this
definition is negligible when using the standard BIOS timer (running
at around 18.2Hz).

TIMER_RDTSC now checks for a constant TSC before claiming to be a
usable timer.  (This timer can be tested in KVM via the command-line
option "-cpu host,+invtsc".)

Move most arch/i386 files to arch/x86, and adjust the contents of the
Makefiles and the include/bits/*.h headers to reflect the new
locations.

This patch makes no substantive code changes, as can be seen using a
rename-aware diff (e.g. "git show -M5").

This patch does not make the pcbios platform functional for x86_64; it
merely allows it to compile without errors.

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).

The currticks() function is called at least once per TCP packet, and
so is performance-critical.  Switching to real mode just to allow the
timer interrupt to fire is expensive when running inside a virtual
machine, and imposes a significant performance cost.

Fix by enabling interrupts without switching to real mode.  This
results in an approximately 100% increase in download speed when
running under KVM.

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resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain.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

Add FILE_LICENCE declarations to almost all files that make up the
various standard builds of gPXE.

We now have two implementations for the timer API: one using the
time-of-day counter at 40:70 and one using RDTSC.  Both make use of
timer2_udelay().
