the same vlan to be on multiple phys devices.

Once we determine which modules we need, parse the actual .ko files for
'firmware=.*' strings.  These provide the path(s) to that module's
firmware, relative to /lib/firmware.  Remove all firmware from the
output directory then copy in only the files we need.

Add '-c' option to gen_initramfs.sh to choose the compression type.
Currently, it supports the following types: gzip (default), bzip2, lzma,
and none.

The toplevel Makefile now has a variable to specify the compression type
of the initramfs, and passes it to gen_initramfs.sh.  Currently it is
set to lzma by default.

The following components of the Linux MFS were updated:

Linux kernel => 2.6.32.9
buildroot => 2010.02
uClibc => 0.9.30.2
busybox => 1.16.0
binutils => 2.20
gcc => 4.2.4
gmp => 4.2.4

The Dell Optiplex reboot patch was removed from the kernel build as it
is already present in 2.6.32.9.

The update was done because:
- The kernel was over a year old and significant updates have happened
  since then.
- A few new useful features were added to busybox
- The kernel now supports bzip2 and lzma compression for itself and
  initramfs in addition to gzip.  Using lzma instead of gzip saves us at
  least 1.5 MB for the kernel+initramfs, possibly more.

Add -s option for initial swapin on new testbed.

script.

Subbosses authenticate to the XML-RPC server as elabman, which means the
resulting server process runs as the elabman user.  Unfortunately, this
doesn't work well when the subboss wants to launch a frisbeed for an
image for which elabman doesn't have read permission (like images under
/proj).

To fix this, a setuid wrapper script is run instead of trying to run
frisbeelauncher directly.  This script makes sure the calling user is
elabman, and then becomes root and execs frisbee_launcher.

The protogeni-wrapper change inadvertently lost the disabling of UUID
checks in the AM. The AM module is now recognized and certs without
UUIDs are allowed to pass through rather than generating an error.

This change required that the path parsing be moved earlier. The path
parse itself remains exactly the same, it just happens earlier on when
processing a request.

The -a flag causes the new authority to be written to the geni-cm
database. This is needed by the AM to allow new slice authorities in
development mode. In production mode the existing args would probably
suffice.

Resurrect the disabling of UUID checks that was lost in the change to
a unified protogeni-wrapper. Moved the disabling to the GeniAM module
to avoid premature loading of GeniDB in protogeni-wrapper.
