A TFTP DATA packet with a block number of zero (representing a
negative offset within the file) could potentially cause problems.
Fixed by explicitly rejecting such packets.

pxe_tftp.c assumes that the first seek on its data-transfer interface
represents the block size. Apart from being an ugly hack, this will
also screw up file size calculation for files smaller than one block.
The proper solution would be to extend the data-transfer interface to
support the reporting of stat()-like data. This is not going to
happen until the cost of adding interface methods is reduced (a fix I
have planned since June 2008).
In the meantime, abuse the xfer_window() method to return the block
size, since it is not being used for anything else and is vaguely
justifiable.
Astonishingly, having returned the incorrect TFTP blocksize via
PXENV_TFTP_OPEN for almost a year seems not to have affected any of
the test cases run during that time; this bug was found only when
someone tried running the heavily-patched version of pxegrub found in
OpenSolaris.
Allow for settings to be described by something other than a DHCP option
tag if desirable. Currently used only for the MAC address setting.
Separate out fake DHCP packet creation code from dhcp.c to fakedhcp.c.
Remove notion of settings from dhcppkt.c.
Rationalise dhcp.c to use settings API only for final registration of the
DHCP options, rather than using {store,fetch}_setting throughout.
will enable us to cascade async operations, which is necessary in order to
properly support DNS. (For example, an HTTP request may have to redirect
to a new location and will have to perform a new DNS lookup, so we can't
just rely on doing the name lookup at the time of parsing the initial
URL).
Anything other than HTTP is probably broken right now; I'll fix the others
up asap.
