38bd7db313 In the old TFTP server, there was an undocumented behavior where
the block counter would rollover to 0 if a file larger
than 65535 blocks was transferred.  With the default block size
of 512 octets per block, this is a file size of approximately 32 megabytes.

The new TFTP server code would report an error and stop transferring
the file if a file was larger than 65535 blocks.

This patch restores the old TFTP server's behavior to the new
TFTP server code.  If a TFTP client transfers a file larger
than 65535 blocks, and does *not* specify the "rollover" option,
then automatically rollover the block counter to 0 every time
we reach 65535 blocks.

This restores interoperability with the FreeBSD 6 TFTP client.
Without this change, if a FreeBSD 6 TFTP client tried to
retrieve a file larger than 65535 blocks from a FreeBSD 9 TFTP server
, the transfer would fail.
The same file could be retrieved successfully if the same FreeBSD 6
TFTP client was used against a FreeBSD 6 TFTP server.
