[profile] Allow interrupts to be excluded from profiling results
Interrupt processing adds noise to profiling results. Allow
interrupts (from within protected mode) to be profiled separately,
with time spent within the interrupt handler being excluded from any
other profiling currently in progress.

[pxe] Always retrieve cached DHCPACK and apply to relevant network device
When chainloading, always retrieve the cached DHCPACK packet from the
underlying PXE stack, and apply it as the original contents of the
"net<X>.dhcp" settings block. This allows cached DHCP settings to be
used for any chainloaded iPXE binary (not just undionly.kkpxe).
This change eliminates the undocumented "use-cached" setting. Issuing
the "dhcp" command will now always result in a fresh DHCP request.

Commit 238050d ("[build] Work around bug in gcc >= 4.8") works around
one instance of a bug in recent versions of gcc, in which "ebp" cannot
be specified within an asm clobber list.
Some versions of gcc seem to exhibit the same bug on other points in
the codebase. Fix by changing all instances of "ebp" in a clobber
list to use the push/pop %ebp workaround instead.

[build] Use weak definitions instead of weak declarations
This removes the need for inline safety wrappers, marginally reducing
the size penalty of weak functions, and works around an apparent
binutils bug that causes undefined weak symbols to not actually be
NULL when compiling with -fPIE (as EFI builds do).
A bug in versions of binutils prior to 2.16 (released in 2005) will
cause same-file weak definitions to not work with those
toolchains. Update the README to reflect our new dependency on
binutils >= 2.16.

[librm] Use libflat to enable A20 line on each real-to-protected transition
Use the shared code in libflat to perform the A20 transitions
automatically on each transition from real to protected mode. This
allows us to remove all explicit calls to gateA20_set().
The old warnings about avoiding automatically enabling A20 are
essentially redundant; they date back to the time when we would always
start hammering the keyboard controller without first checking to see
if gate A20 was already enabled (which it almost always is).

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resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain.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

[pxe] Support cached DHCP packets in .kkpxe images
If we don't unload the PXE stack before executing gPXE, automatically
take advantage of the cached DHCPACK that the underlying/parent PXE
stack can provide. If that cached DHCPACK contains option 175.178, or
the user sets the use-cached setting before invoking DHCP, the real
DHCP request will be skipped and the cached DHCPACK will be used for
network configuration. Otherwise, the cached settings block is thrown
away as soon as a fresh one is acquired.

[pxe] Separate parent PXE API caller from UNDINET driver
Calling the parent PXE stack (the stack that loaded us, for
undionly.kkpxe) can be useful for more than UNDI calls; for instance,
it lets us get cached DHCP packets to avoid re-DHCP when working with
embedded images.
