- update to release 5.10
  * PXELINUX: An entirely new network implementation based on the lwIP
    embedded TCP/IP stack. As a result, plain PXELINUX can now support
    HTTP and FTP without gPXE/iPXE. ls/readdir functionality is supported
    over HTTP with an indexing webserver, or over FTP with most common
    FTP servers. For the new network stack use lpxelinux.0.
    For the legacy stack use pxelinux.0.
  * Rename the "ipappend" option to "sysappend" ("ipappend" is still
    accepted as an alias) and make it available for all derivatives.
    Add additional strings derived from the system DMI/SMBIOS information if available.
  * "sysappend" strings are also sent as http cookies, with the prefix
    _Syslinux_ added, on all http transfers. This can be overridden with
    the SENDCOOKIES configuration file command.
  * poweroff.c32: A new module to power off a system via APM.
    It replaces the poweroff COMBOOT module (Sebastian Herbszt).
  * PXELINUX: Fix booting with DHCP options 209 and 210 which was broken in 5.00.
  * Handle loading kernel images with no protected mode code.
    A legitimate kernel image can consist solely of real-mode code.
    The support for booting such images was broken in 5.00 (Josh Triplett).
  * Fix a regression in the .psf font file loader introduced in 5.00.
