Add APE firmware support and improve firmware handshake procedure.
This change will enable IPMI access on 5717/5718/5719/5720 and 5761
controllers. Because ASF is not available when APE firmware is
present, bge_allow_asf tunable is ignored when driver detects APE
firmware. Also bge(4) no longer performs two resets(one blind
reset and the other reset with firmware in mind) in device attach.
Now bge(4) performs a reset with enough information in bge_reset().
The APE firmware also needs special handling to make suspend/resume
work but it was not implemented yet.
With this change, bge(4) should work on any 5717/5718/5719/5720
controllers. Special thanks to Mike Hibler at Emulab who setup
remote debugging on Dell R820. Without his help I couldn't be able
to address several issues happened on Dell Rx20 systems. And many
thanks to Broadcom for continuing to support FreeBSD!
