Exploit the redefinition of iPXE error codes to include a "platform
error code" to allow for meaningful conversion of EFI_STATUS values to
iPXE errors and vice versa.

EFI_PCI_DEVICE_ENABLE is a list of the standard attributes that must
be enabled for a PCI device to function: I/O cycles, memory cycles,
and bus-mastering. We currently call EFI_PCI_IO_PROTOCOL::Attribute()
with the parameter EFI_PCI_DEVICE_ENABLE to enable a PCI device. This
should translate to a single write to PCI configuration space.
Simplicity is not a virtue within the UEFI world. Some platforms will
'helpfully' report an error if EFI_PCI_DEVICE_ENABLE is used on a
device that doesn't actually support all three of the relevant
attributes. For example, if a PCI device provides only memory-mapped
accesses (and so hardwires the I/O enable bit to zero), then using
EFI_PCI_DEVICE_ENABLE on such a platform will result in an
EFI_UNSUPPORTED error.
There is no plausible use case in which it is useful for the platform
to return an error in this way, and doing so makes it impossible to
distinguish genuine errors from noise.
Work around this broken behaviour by attempting to enable the three
attributes individually, and ignoring any errors.

Re-open the EFI_PCI_IO_PROTOCOL specifying an Attributes value of
EFI_OPEN_PROTOCOL_BY_CHILD_CONTROLLER. This causes the SNP devices to
be marked as children of the EFI PCI device (as shown in the "devtree"
command).
On at least one IBM blade system, this is required in order to have
the relevant drivers automatically attach to the SNP controller at
device creation time.

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.

Merge the "bus" and "devfn" fields into a single "busdevfn" field, to
match the format used by the majority of external code.

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resources has been revoked by the registrant of the domain.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

EFI_STATUS is defined as an INTN, which maps to UINT32 (i.e. unsigned
int) on i386 and UINT64 (i.e. unsigned long) on x86_64. This would
require a cast each time the error status is printed.
Add efi_strerror() to avoid this ickiness and simultaneously enable
prettier reporting of EFI status codes.
This brings us in to line with Linux definitions, and also simplifies
adding x86_64 support since both platforms have 2-byte shorts, 4-byte
ints and 8-byte long longs.
We have EFI APIs for CPU I/O, PCI I/O, timers, console I/O, user
access and user memory allocation.
EFI executables are created using the vanilla GNU toolchain, with the
EXE header handcrafted in assembly and relocations generated by a
custom efilink utility.
