[tls] Request a maximum fragment length of 2048 bytes

The default maximum plaintext fragment length for TLS is 16kB, which
is a substantial amount of memory for iPXE to have to allocate for a
temporary decryption buffer.

Reduce the memory footprint of TLS connections by requesting a maximum
fragment length of 2kB.
