When building for 64-bit ARM, some symbol references may be resolved
via an "adrp" instruction (to obtain the start of the 4kB page
containing the symbol) and a separate 12-bit offset. For example
(taken from the GNU assembler documentation):
adrp x0, foo
ldr x0, [x0, #:lo12:foo]
We occasionally refer to symbols defined via mechanisms that are not
directly visible to gcc. For example:
extern char some_magic_symbol[];
__asm__ ( ".equ some_magic_symbol, some_magic_expression" );
The subsequent use of the ":lo12:" prefix on such magically-defined
symbols triggers an assertion failure in the assembler.
This problem seems to affect only "private_key_len" in the current
codebase. Fix by storing this value as static data; this avoids the
need to provide the value as a literal within the instruction stream,
and so avoids the problematic use of the ":lo12:" prefix.

On some architectures (such as ARM) the "@" character is used as a
comment delimiter. A section type argument such as "@progbits"
therefore becomes "%progbits".
This is further complicated by the fact that the "%" character has
special meaning for inline assembly when input or output operands are
used, in which cases "@progbits" becomes "%%progbits".
Allow the section type character(s) to be defined via Makefile
variables.

Expand the concept of the X.509 cache to provide the functionality of
a certificate store. Certificates in the store will be automatically
used to complete certificate chains where applicable.
The certificate store may be prepopulated at build time using the
CERT=... build command line option. For example:
make bin/ipxe.usb CERT=mycert1.crt,mycert2.crt
Certificates within the certificate store are not implicitly trusted;
the trust list is specified using TRUST=... as before. For example:
make bin/ipxe.usb CERT=root.crt TRUST=root.crt
This can be used to embed the full trusted root certificate within the
iPXE binary, which is potentially useful in an HTTPS-only environment
in which there is no HTTP server from which to automatically download
cross-signed certificates or other certificate chain fragments.
This usage of CERT= extends the existing use of CERT= to specify the
client certificate. The client certificate is now identified
automatically by checking for a match against the private key. For
example:
make bin/ipxe.usb CERT=root.crt,client.crt TRUST=root.crt KEY=client.key
