An MNP network device may be temporarily and non-destructively
installed on top of an existing UEFI network stack without having to
disconnect existing drivers.
Add the ability to create such a temporary network device.

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.

Commit 4c5b794 ("[efi] Use the SNP protocol instance to match the SNP
chainloading device") switched the chainloaded device matching logic
to use a target protocol instance rather than the loaded image's
device handle, on the basis that we want to bind to the parent SNP
device rather than to a duplicate SNP protocol instance installed onto
an IPv4 or IPv6 child device handle.
It is possible that our calls to DisconnectController() and
ConnectController() will cause the target protocol instance to be
uninstalled and reinstalled, which may change the value of the
protocol instance pointer. Allow for this by identifying and matching
against the uppermost handle that initially has this target protocol
instance installed.

Extend the functionality of efi_locate_device() to allow callers to
find instances of the protocol that may exist further up the device
path.

The raw EFI_HANDLE value is almost never useful to know, and simply
adds noise to the already verbose debug messages. Improve the
legibility of debug messages by using only the name generated by
efi_handle_name().

End users almost certainly don't care whether the underlying interface
is SNP or NII/UNDI. Try to minimise surprise and unnecessary
documentation by including the NII driver whenever the SNP driver is
requested.

Some systems will install a child of the SNP device and use this as
our loaded image's device handle, duplicating the installation of the
underlying SNP protocol onto the child device handle. On such
systems, we want to end up driving the parent device (and
disconnecting any other drivers, such as MNP, which may be attached to
the parent device).
Fix by recording the SNP protocol instance at initialisation time, and
using this to match against device handles (rather than simply
comparing the handles themselves).

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.

Remove the concept of shutdown exit flags, and replace it with a
counter used to keep track of exposed interfaces that require devices
to remain active.

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.
