New Mac's no longer support PXE booting. This code is no longer being used with DHCPLB. Fixes #116

older macs still support it though. @pmazzini what do we lose leaving this as it is?

Older Macs have been phased out. I think nobody is making use of this code at the moment.

Phased out as in they are not sold anymore? If so, I still expect that those devices will be around for years to come

My point being: I expect that this hardware will lie around in the public market for years still, even if DHCPLB doesn't need then anymore. If there is no downside in removing this code, I'd leave it here for external users

afaik the hardware is no longer being sold and the software running on it is no longer maintained / supported.

One benefit of cleaning this up is that we will have one less thing to migrate to the new DHCP client. (ref #459 where there was a previous attempt at removing part of this package).

I have't seen users using this code and would rather avoid leaving stale code around. I thought we would benefit from some cleanup but we can leave it if you think somebody may benefit from it.
