Firmware: add iSCSI iBFT Support

Add /sysfs/firmware/ibft/[initiator|targetX|ethernetX] directories along with
text properties which export the the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table (iBFT)
structure.

What is iSCSI Boot Firmware Table?  It is a mechanism for the iSCSI tools to
extract from the machine NICs the iSCSI connection information so that they
can automagically mount the iSCSI share/target.  Currently the iSCSI
information is hard-coded in the initrd.  The /sysfs entries are read-only
one-name-and-value fields.

The usual set of data exposed is:

# for a in `find /sys/firmware/ibft/ -type f -print`; do  echo -n "$a: ";  cat $a; done
