In order to build the multiboot option rom, we need a Makefile and a tool
to sign the rom with.
Both are provided by this patch and mostly taken from the extboot source,
written by Anthony Liguori.
Once built, the resulting binary gets copied to pc-bios automatically.
Building also occurs automatically when on an x86 host.

Not every distro provides libcurses anymore, at least OpenSUSE, and at
least under a standard library search path. So try to link against
standard ncurses first and then fall back to legacy curses.

Add support for tee, splice and vmsplice.
Originally from: vibi sreenivasan <vibi_sreenivasan@cms.com>
Riku: squashed patches together, added a test to configure
and removed compliler warning by picking up correct type for
splice param

The glibc function for utimensat glibc returns -EINVAL when the path is null
which is a different behaviour with the syscall.
path can be null because internally the glibc is using utimensat with
path null when implmenting futimens. If path is null, call futimes
instead.
don't try to copy timespec from user if is NULL.
Add configure check for older systems

Currently Qemu can read from posix I/O and NBD. This patch adds a
third protocol to the game: HTTP.
In certain situations it can be useful to access HTTP data directly,
for example if you want to try out an http provided OS image, but
don't know if you want to download it yet.
Using this patch you can now try it on on the fly. Just use it like:
qemu -cdrom http://host/path/my.iso
