Fall back to old boot.ipxe behaviour if inc command is not found
We introduced looping over all NIC's as on older iPXE ROM's ${mac} variable does not always point to the PXE-booting NIC. However, CentOS/RHEL ship even older iPXE ROM that does not even have inc command at all. This patch restores the old behaviour of relying on ${mac} variable when inc command cannot be executed. It's still not perfect and might break sometimes, but it won't be completely broken. Nothing is changes for users for which inc command is already working.
