We want exclusive access to the network device, both for performance
reasons and because we perform operations such as EAPoL that affect
the entire link. We currently drive the network card via either a
native hardware driver or via the SNP or NII/UNDI interfaces, both of
which grant us this exclusive access.
Add an alternative driver that drives the network card non-exclusively
via the EFI_MANAGED_NETWORK_PROTOCOL interface. This can function as
a fallback for situations where neither SNP nor NII/UNDI interfaces
are functional, and also opens up the possibility of non-destructively
installing a temporary network device over which to download the
autoexec.ipxe script.

Rewrite the SNP NIC driver to use non-blocking and deferrable
transmissions, to provide link status detection, to provide
information about the underlying (PCI) hardware device, and to avoid
unnecessary I/O buffer allocations during receive polling.

Add a new network driver that consumes the EFI Simple Network
Protocol. Also add a bus driver that can find the Simple Network
Protocol that iPXE was loaded from; the resulting behavior is similar
to the "undionly" driver for BIOS systems.
