datetime: Enable the datetime module for the emu platform
Fixes a build failure:
grub-core/commands/date.c:49: undefined reference to `grub_get_weekday_name'
grub-core/commands/ls.c:155: undefined reference to `grub_unixtime2datetime'
normal/main: Search for specific config files for netboot
This patch implements a search for a specific configuration when the config
file is on a remoteserver. It uses the following order:
1) DHCP client UUID option.
2) MAC address (in lower case hexadecimal with dash separators);
3) IP (in upper case hexadecimal) or IPv6;
4) The original grub.cfg file.

normal: Move common datetime functions out of the normal module
The common datetime helper functions are currently included in the normal
module, but this makes any other module that calls these functions to have
a dependency with the normal module only for this reason.
Since the normal module does a lot of stuff, it calls functions from other
modules. But since other modules may depend on it for calling the datetime
helpers, this could lead to circular dependencies between modules.
As an example, when platform == xen the grub_get_datetime() function from
the datetime module calls to the grub_unixtime2datetime() helper function
from the normal module. Which leads to the following module dependency:
datetime -> normal
and send_dhcp_packet() from the net module calls the grub_get_datetime()
function, which leads to the following module dependency:
net -> datetime -> normal
but that means that the normal module is not allowed to depend on net or
any other module that depends on it due the transitive dependency caused
by datetime. A recent patch attempted to add support to fetch the config
file over the network, which leads to the following circular dependency:
normal -> net -> datetime -> normal
So having the datetime helpers in the normal module makes it quite fragile
and easy to add circular dependencies like these, that break the build due
the genmoddep.awk script catching the issues.
Fix this by taking the datetime helper functions out of the normal module
and instead add them to the datetime module itself. Besides fixing these
issues, it makes more sense to have these helper functions there anyways.

AUDIT-0: http boot tracker bug
Fixing a memory leak in case of error, and a integer overflow, leading to a
heap overflow due to overly large chunk sizes.
We need to check against some maximum value, otherwise values like 0xffffffff
will eventually lead in the allocation functions to small sized buffers, since
the len is rounded up to the next reasonable alignment. The following memcpy
will then smash the heap, leading to RCE.
This is no big issue for pure http boot, since its going to execute an
untrusted kernel anyway, but it will break trusted boot scenarios, where only
signed code is allowed to be executed.
