[build] Pad .rom, .dsk, and .hd images to 512-byte boundaries
...
QEMU will silently round down a disk or ROM image file to the nearest
512 bytes. Fix by always padding .rom, .dsk and .hd images to the
nearest 512-byte boundary.

[contrib] Add patch to enable writable ROM images in bochs
...
Some of the gPXE romprefix.S code attempts to write to the ROM image,
as allowed by the PCI spec. We do gracefully handle the case of
read-only ROM images (for ISA ROMs and for normal bochs/qemu
operation), but it can be handy to be able to use bochs to debug the
code paths that depend on writable ROM images.

[util] Disable automatic CR->LF conversion in serial-console utility
...
DUET (the EFI test environment) seems not to handle LF, so inhibit the
CR->LF conversion that the pty does for us by default. This doesn't
affect operation of gPXE, which will happily accept either CR or LF.
