Demi Marie Obenour 04988f1c59 configure: Replace git:// and http:// with https://
Obtaining code over an insecure transport is a terrible idea for
blatently obvious reasons.  Even for non-executable data, insecure
transports are considered deprecated.

This patch enforces the use of secure transports in the build system.
Some URLs returned 301 or 302 redirects, so I replaced them with the
URLs that were redirected to.

This directory builds gPXE option ROMs from the gPXE source
tarball. We provide this tarball in our source so that the option ROMs
can be reconstructed from source, allowing easier debugging and
fulfilling the terms of the GPL.

We make a few non-standard settings, most to do with timeouts and when
to give up, and for stricter DHCP spec compliance.

----------------------------------------

Since gPXE upstream do not appear to distribute tarballs, we
generated one ourselves with the following runes (to extract the tree
as on 25th September 2008):

 git clone git://git.etherboot.org/scm/gpxe.git
 cd gpxe
 git archive --format=tar --prefix=gpxe/ c24bc349ead939d90b5784dbff3cd9fdb9d83ba8 | gzip -n >../gpxe-git-snapshot.tar.gz
