The ip_version information now has to be stored in the filename_ip_t
structure, and there is now a common function called tftp_get_error_info()
which can be used to get the error string for a TFTP error code.
We can also get rid of some superfluous "(char *)" casts now.

The .INS config files can normally be found on CD-ROM ISO images,
so by supporting these files, it is now possible to boot directly
when the TFTP server is set up with the contents of such an CD-ROM
image.

The netboot firmware so far simply jumped directly into the OS kernel
after the download has been completed. This, however, bears the risk
that the virtio-net device still might be active in the background and
incoming packets are still placed into the buffers - which could destroy
memory of the now-running Linux kernel in case it did not take over the
device fast enough. Also the SCLP console is not put into a well-defined
state here. We should hand over the system in a clean state when jumping
into the kernel, so let's use the same mechanism as it's done in the
main s390-ccw firmware and reset the machine with diag308 into a clean
state before jumping into the OS kernel code. To be able to share the
code with the main s390-ccw firmware, the related functions are now
extracted from bootmap.c into a new file called jump2ipl.c.
Since we now also set the boot device schid at address 184 for the network
boot device, this patch also slightly changes the way how we detect the
entry points for non-ELF binary images: The code now looks for the "S390EP"
magic first and then jumps to 0x10000 in case it has been found. This is
necessary for booting from network devices, since the normal kernel code
(where the PSW at ddress 0 points to) tries to do a block load from the
boot device. This of course fails for a virtio-net device and causes the
kernel to abort with a panic-PSW silently.

When we want to support pxelinux-style network booting later, we've got
to do several TFTP transfers - and we do not want to apply for a new IP
address via DHCP each time. So split up net_load into three parts:
1. net_init(), which initializes virtio-net, gets an IP address via DHCP
and prints out the related information.
2. The tftp_load call is now moved directly into the main() function
3. A new net_release() function which should tear down the network stack
before we are done in the firmware.
This will make it easier to extend the code in the next patches.

Most of the code has been taken from SLOF's netload.c file. Now we
can finally load an image via TFTP and execute the downloaded kernel.

This is just a preparation for the next steps: Add a makefile and a
stripped down copy of pc-bios/s390-ccw/main.c as a basis for the network
bootloader program, linked against the libc from SLOF already (which we
will need for SLOF's libnet). The networking code is not included yet.
