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.

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resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain.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

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.
