Michael Turek f13959c031 Enable PXE for systems using petitboot
Petitboot systems do not use the pxelinux.0 loader. Instead,
petitboot itself handles pxelinux functionality. A side effect of
this is that petitboot requires DHCP option 210 (tftp path-prefix)
as this information is normally derived from the boot file name.
This patch uses the value of tftp_root as a path prefix and makes
the PXE module honor that prefix.

features:
- Adds the use of DHCP option 210 (tftp-path-prefix). This
enables PXE for systems using petitboot, which cannot
infer their tftp-path-prefix from the boot file location
as petitboot does not use a boot file.
