Remove 'Alpha' status tag. Let's just refer to the OVMF
releases by their revision control version.
Remove 'stabilize UEFI Linux' to-do item.

DHCP, PXE, and StdLib socket apps are enabled in OVMF by the sum of:
(a) a UEFI NIC driver,
(b) the generic network stack.
The only choice for (a) used to be the proprietary Intel E1000 driver,
which is cumbersome to obtain and enable.
The iPXE UEFI NIC drivers packaged with qemu-1.5 cover (a) for each NIC
type supported by qemu, and are easy to obtain & configure, even for
earlier qemu versions. Therefore enable (b) per default as well.
This doesn't take up much space; the binaries (b) adds to the firmware
don't seem to need -D FD_SIZE_2MB.
Intel's e1000 driver remains an option, requested by the -D E1000_ENABLE
build flag.

The README is rather extended than trimmed, so that users grepping for the
file name have a pointer.

UNIXGCC builds larger images than GCC44, and can have issues
fitting into the FD image. Therefore, when using UNIXGCC,
debug will be disabled by default.
The README file is updated with instructions for selectively
enabling debug for UNIXGCC.

This enables qemu to use OVMF with a single -bios option. Based on
<http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2012-03/msg01992.html>.
v1->v2:
- move xen-devel link from code to commit message
- cover all three FDF files

Add a single build.sh to replace build32.sh & build64.sh.
The script watches for various parameters:
-a: allows selecting IA32 or X64 (default)
-b: allows selecting RELEASE or DEBUG (default)
-t: allows selecting the toolchain
When running qemu, the script doesn't always add -hda now.
If the user provides a disk parameter (for example, -fda, -hda
or -cdrom), then -hda will not be added to the qemu command line.

These scripts are similar to those found under DuetPkg & UnixPkg.
The scripts simplify building and running OVMF under systems that
have the bash shell available.
