The fetch_setting() family of functions may currently modify the
definition of the specified setting (e.g. to add missing type
information). Clean up this interface by requiring callers to provide
an explicit buffer to contain the completed definition of the fetched
setting, if required.

The VESA frame buffer console uses the VESA BIOS extensions (VBE) to
enumerate video modes, selects an appropriate mode, and then hands off
to the generic frame buffer code.
The font is extracted from the VGA BIOS, avoiding the need to provide
an external font file.

Allow CPUID values to be read using the syntax
${cpuid/<register>.<function>}
For example, ${cpuid/2.0x80000001} will give the value of %ecx after
calling CPUID with %eax=0x80000001. Values for <register> are encoded
as %eax=0, %ebx=1, %ecx=2, %edx=3.
The numeric encoding is more sophisticated than described above,
allowing for settings such as the CPU model (obtained by calling CPUID
with %eax=0x80000002-0x80000004 inclusive and concatenating the values
returned in %eax:%ebx:%ecx:%edx). See the source code for details.
The "cpuvendor" and "cpumodel" settings provide easy access to these
more complex CPUID settings.
This functionality is intended to complement the "cpuid" command,
which allows for testing individual CPUID feature bits.

Our use of --gc-sections causes the linker to discard the symbols
defined by FILE_LICENCE(), meaning that the resulting licence
determination is incomplete.
We must use the KEEP() directive in the linker script to force the
linker to not discard the licence symbols. Using KEEP(*(COMMON))
would be undesirable, since there are some symbols in COMMON which we
may wish to discard.
Fix by placing symbols defined by PROVIDE_SYMBOL() (which is used by
FILE_LICENCE()) into a special ".provided" section, which we then mark
with KEEP(). All such symbols are zero-length, so there is no cost in
terms of the final binary size.
Since the symbols are no longer in COMMON, the linker will reject
symbols with the same name coming from multiple objects. We therefore
append the object name to the licence symbol, to ensure that it is
unique.

The generic TCP/IP checksum implementation requires approximately 10
CPU clocks per byte (as measured using the TSC). Improve this to
approximately 0.5 CPU clocks per byte by using "lodsl ; adcl" in an

RSA requires modular exponentiation using arbitrarily large integers.
Given the sizes of the modulus and exponent, all required calculations
can be done without any further dynamic storage allocation. The x86
architecture allows for efficient large integer support via inline
assembly using the instructions that take advantage of the carry flag
(e.g. "adcl", "rcrl").
This implemention is approximately 80% smaller than the (more generic)
AXTLS implementation.

Some binutils versions will drag in an object to satisfy the entry
symbol; some won't. Try to cope with this exciting variety of
behaviour by ensuring that all entry symbols are unique.
Remove the explicit inclusion of the prefix object on the linker
command line, since the entry symbol now provides all the information
needed to identify the prefix.

EFI performs its own PCI bus enumeration. Respect this, and start
controlling devices only when instructed to do so by EFI.
As a side benefit, we should now correctly create multiple SNP
instances for multi-port devices.
This should also fix the problem of failing to enumerate devices
because the PCI bridges have not yet been enabled at the time the iPXE
driver is loaded.

The linker chooses to look for _start first and always picks
efidrvprefix.o to satisfy it (probably because it's earlier in the
archive) which causes a multiple definition error when the linker
later has to pick efiprefix.o for other symbols.
