corresponding iPXE VLAN device to be created automatically.

Michael Brown 5a2fa6040e [autoboot] Include VLAN tag in filter for identifying autoboot device
When chainloading iPXE from a VLAN device, the MAC address of the
loaded image's device handle will match the MAC address of the trunk
device created by iPXE, and the autoboot process will then erroneously
consider the trunk device to be an autoboot device.

Fix by recording the VLAN tag along with the MAC address, and treating
the VLAN tag as part of the filter used to match the MAC address
against candidate network devices.

Michael Brown e39cd79a00 [efi] Split out autoexec script portions of efi_autoboot.c
The "autoboot device" and "autoexec script" functionalities in
efi_autoboot.c are unrelated except in that they both need to be
invoked by efiprefix.c before device drivers are loaded.

Split out the autoexec script portions to a separate file to avoid
potential confusion.

Michael Brown a3f1e8fb67 [efi] Automatically load "/autoexec.ipxe" when booted from a filesystem
When booting iPXE from a filesystem (e.g. a FAT-formatted USB key) it
can be useful to have an iPXE script loaded automatically from the
same filesystem.  Compared to using an embedded script, this has the
advantage that the script can be edited without recompiling the iPXE
binary.

For the BIOS version of iPXE, loading from a filesystem is handled
using syslinux (or isolinux) which allows the script to be passed to
the iPXE .lkrn image as an initrd.

For the UEFI version of iPXE, the platform firmware loads the iPXE
.efi image directly and there is currently no equivalent of the BIOS
initrd mechanism.

Add support for automatically loading a file "autoexec.ipxe" (if
present) from the root of the filesystem containing the UEFI iPXE
binary.

A combined BIOS and UEFI image for a USB key can be created using e.g.

  ./util/genfsimg -o usbkey.img -s myscript.ipxe \
      bin-x86_64-efi/ipxe.efi bin/ipxe.lkrn

The file "myscript.ipxe" would appear as "autoexec.ipxe" on the USB
key, and would be loaded automatically on both BIOS and UEFI systems.
