xen.git/tools/firmware/etherboot/Makefile tries to get a tarball from
xen-extfiles first and if that fails, tries cloning from ipxe.org.
ipxe.org is sometimes down (or half-down) and when that happens
without a tarball the build breaks and is hard to fix.
We would like, therefore, to ensure that the tarball is always made
before the commit which refers to it is in xen.git#master.
osstest has no knowledge of ipxe as a separate thing and just lets
xen.git have whatever version is in Config.mk. So osstest never needs
to specify particular ipxe version by hash, or the like.
So simply make osstest rely on the tarball existing, by having it
specify a completely invalid URL for the git clone. This will detect
attempts to update IPXE_GIT_TAG without making a corresponding
tarball.
