MFC r330023, r330028: Add MAXWAIT for configuring pxeboot timeout

r330023: libsa: Add MAXWAIT to net for establishing max total timeout

Current timeout behavior is to progress in timeout values from MINTMO to
MAXTMO in MINTMO steps before finally timing out. This results in a fairly
long time before operations finally timeout, which may not be ideal for some
use-cases.

Add MAXWAIT that may be configured along with MINTMO/MAXTMO. If we attempt
to start our send/recv cycle over again but MAXWAIT > 0 and MAXWAIT seconds
have already passed, then go ahead and timeout.

This is intended for those that just want to say "timeout after 180 seconds"
rather than calculate and tweak MINTMO/MAXTMO to get their desired timeout.
The default is 0, or "progress from MINTMO to MAXTMO with no exception."

This has been modified since review to allow for it to be defined via CFLAGS
and doing appropriate error checking. Future work may add some Makefile foo
to respect LOADER_NET_MAXWAIT if it's specified in the environment and pass
it in as MAXWAIT accordingly.

r330028: libsa: Partially revert r330023

The removal of tmo >= MAXTMO check should not have been done; this is
specifically what handles timeout if MAXWAIT == 0.
