Bug#907805: syslinux.efi uses the TFTP server IP for the HTTP domain

[Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it>]

Package: syslinux-efi
Version: 3:6.04~git20171011.af7e95c3+dfsg1-4
Severity: important

When providing to syslinux.efi an http URL in option 67:

dhcp-option=option:bootfile-name,http://pxe.example.net/EFI/SYSLINUX/syslinux.efi

then it will try to download the modules like ldlinux.e64, the 
configuration file and the payload by sending an HTTP request to the 
TFTP server address (with pxe.example.net as virtual host) instead of 
resolving pxe.example.net and using that IP as expected.
