By supporting Type 9 ( „EFI x86-64“ ), pixiecore can boot VMware (Fusion) EFI-Type Machines.
The const for FirmwareEFI64 has been renamed to FirmwareEFIBC ( see RFC-4578, Section 2.1 ) and FirmwareEFI64 is assign to type 9 and uses the same ipxe blob as FirmwareEFIBC.

The UI is optional and need to be explicitly activated, since I
don't want existing users to suddenly have an information-spewing
thing show up on their network.
iPXE appears to have *really* poor performance (orders of magnitude worse) if
it doesn't know the length of the kernel/initrds that it's downloading. Without
this change, booting CoreOS takes longer than I've had patience to wait. With
this change, the bottleneck becomes the network transfer speed.
Fixes#10.
pixiecore: Plumb NewSnooperConn into Server as an advanced option.
pixiecore/cli: Plumb DHCPNoBind to the CLI.
Now, by default, Pixiecore will bind() to the DHCP server port in a way
that shows up in `netstat` by default. If you want to enable the "coexist
with my existing DHCP server" mode, you need to explicitly pass
--dhcp-no-bind.
The v1compat CLI is now complete, with support for --debug. The v2 CLI
additionally supports optional timestamping, so that when you're using
a modern init system that captures logs for you (e.g. systemd), you
don't have stuttering timestamps.
This hack tries to interpret the commandline based on what Pixiecore v1
did, before handing off to the fancier v2 CLI logic.
Doesn't support API mode yet, since that's not yet implemented in
the library.
These flags are both for providing binaries when running the apache2
version of pixiecore (which doesn't have builtin ipxe), and for
overriding the builtin version if desired.
The cli package is meant for single-shot execution anyway, so
instead of plumbing everything through reentrantly, let's just
have a global you can seed before calling CLI().
The two binaries (Apache2 and GPL) both invoke the cli package to do
the work, the only difference between them is that the GPL binary passes
it embedded ipxe binaries.
