PXENV_FILE_EXIT_HOOK is designed to allow ipxelinux.0 to unload both
the iPXE and pxelinux components without affecting the underlying PXE
stack. Unfortunately, it causes unexpected behaviour in other
situations, such as when loading a non-embedded pxelinux.0 via
undionly.kpxe. For example:
PXE ROM -> undionly.kpxe -> pxelinux.0 -> chain.c32 to boot hd0
would cause control to return to iPXE instead of booting from the hard
disk. In some cases, this would result in a harmless but confusing
"No more network devices" message; in other cases stranger things
would happen, such as being returned to the iPXE shell prompt.
The fundamental problem is that when pxelinux detects
PXENV_FILE_EXIT_HOOK, it may attempt to specify an exit hook and then
exit back to iPXE, assuming that iPXE will in turn exit cleanly via
the specified exit hook. This is not a valid assumption in the
general case, since the action of exiting back to iPXE does not
directly cause iPXE to exit itself. (In the specific case of
ipxelinux.0, this will work since the embedded script exits as soon as
pxelinux.0 exits.)
Fix the unexpected behaviour in the non-ipxelinux.0 cases by including
support for PXENV_FILE_EXIT_HOOK only when using a new .kkkpxe format.
The ipxelinux.0 build process should therefore now use undionly.kkkpxe
instead of undionly.kkpxe.

On at least one PXE stack (Realtek r8169), PXENV_UNDI_INITIALIZE has
been observed to fail intermittently due to a media test failure (PXE
error 0x00000061). Retrying the call to PXENV_UNDI_INITIALIZE
succeeds, and the NIC is then usable.
It is worth noting that this particular Realtek PXE stack is already
known to be unreliable: for example, it repeatably fails its own
boot-time media test after every warm reboot.
Fix by attempting PXENV_UNDI_INITIALIZE multiple times, with a short
delay between each attempt to allow the link to settle.

The RS bit is used to instruct the NIC to update the TX descriptor
status byte. The RPS bit is used to instruct the NIC to defer this
update until after the packet has been transmitted on the wire (rather
than merely read into the transmit FIFO).
The driver currently sets RPS but not RS. Some e1000 models seem to
interpret this as implying that the status byte should be updated;
some don't. On the ones that don't, we never see any TX completions
and so rapidly run out of TX buffers.
Fix by setting the RS bit in the TX descriptor. (We don't care about
when the packet reaches the wire, so don't bother setting the RPS
bit.)

Some iSCSI targets (observed with stgt) can be configured to reject
connections that do not use header or data digests, and will respond
with "HeaderDigest=Reject" and/or "DataDigest=Reject", while still
allowing the connection to proceed to the full feature phase.
According to a strict reading of RFC3720, we are perfectly safe to
ignore these "Reject" messages: upon such a rejection "the negotiated
key is left at its current value (or default if no value was set)".
Since the default value for both HeaderDigest and DataDigest is
"None", then the only viable conclusion to be drawn is that the value
resulting from "Reject" is still "None".
Unfortunately, stgt doesn't seem to agree with this interpretation of
events, causing us to eventually report an unhelpful "connection timed
out" message to the user when we don't get any response to our first
PDU in full feature phase.
Fix by detecting any rejected parameters and immediately reporting an
error, which at least gives the user some insight as to what the real
problem may be.

Polling for the data-transfer window to become open is wasteful. We
can eliminate the polling loop by using hw_step() as the handler for
an xfer_window_changed() event.
If the window is already open at the time of instantiation, then
xfer_window_changed() may never be called. We can cover this case by
using hw_step() as the step() method of a one-shot process. Since the
signature for an xfer_window_changed() method is identical to the
signature for a process step() method, the same function can be used
for both.

Several BIOSes (including most IBM BIOSes and many virtual machine
BIOSes) do not provide detectable PnP support, but will use the BEV
entry point for a PnP option ROM. On these semi-PnP BIOSes, iPXE will
respond to the absence of detectable PnP support by hooking INT19,
which disrupts the boot order.
BIOSes that genuinely require hooking INT19 seem to be very rare
nowadays. It may therefore be preferable to assume that the absence
of detectable PnP support indicates a semi-PnP BIOS rather than a
non-PnP BIOS.
Change the default behaviour so that INT19 will never be hooked unless
the compile-time option NONPNP_HOOK_INT19 is enabled. Leave the
redundant PnP detection routine in-place to allow for debugging via
