Fix chainloading iPXE (undionly.kpxe)

This patch is making the neutron DHCP provider to explicitly check if
the request is coming from iPXE before ACK'ing the PXE request with the
iPXE script (When iPXE is enabled only).

Also, update the documentation that explains how to configure neutron
for iPXE to create the "ipxe" tag based on the DHCP user class or DHCP
option 175 (as before).

Neutron configuration
---------------------
DHCP requests from iPXE need to have a DHCP tag called ``ipxe``, in order
for the DHCP server to tell the client to get the boot.ipxe script via
HTTP. Otherwise, if the tag isn't there, the DHCP server will tell the
DHCP client to chainload the iPXE image (undionly.kpxe). Neutron needs to
be configured to create this DHCP tag, since it isn't create by default.
#. Create a custom ``dnsmasq.conf`` file with a setting for the ipxe tag. For
example, create the file ``/etc/dnsmasq-ironic.conf`` with the content::
# Create the "ipxe" tag if request comes from iPXE user class
dhcp-userclass=set:ipxe,iPXE
# Alternatively, create the "ipxe" tag if request comes from DHCP option 175
# dhcp-match=set:ipxe,175
#. In the Neutron DHCP Agent configuration file (typically located at
/etc/neutron/dhcp_agent.ini), set the custom ``/etc/dnsmasq-ironic.conf``
file as the dnsmasq configuration file::
[DEFAULT]
dnsmasq_config_file = /etc/dnsmasq-ironic.conf
#. Restart the ``neutron-dhcp-agent`` process::
service neutron-dhcp-agent restart
