dracut.ipxe boots an initramfs detected in the container image. This
required a few small changes to warewulfd and the wwinit overlay to
accommodate the dracut initramfs configuring the network interface
before wwinit:
- Include .NetDevs in the ipxe configuration template, so that dracut
can configure interfaces with the correct names.
- Configure NetworkManager to not keep the initramfs configuration, in
stead applying the configuration found by wwinit.

GitHub PR #235 adds an advanced boot mechanism for UEFI machines which
causes old Legacy BIOS nodes to hit the 3 GB RAM barrier in 32 Bit iPXE
very quickly. Therefore, detect if an EFI or Legacy BIOS is loaded and
fall back to the old boot path in the second case.
