Jiaxin reports that the OvmfPkg/README instructions for downloading the
Intel PROEFI drivers, and the filenames in OvmfPkg/OvmfPkg*.fdf for
incorporating the same in the OVMF binaries, are no longer up to date; the
download link has stopped working.

Additionally, the IA32 driver binary is no more distributed by Intel.

Update OvmfPkg/README with new download instructions, and adapt the OVMF
FDF files.

With this driver in use for QEMU's e1000 NIC, the DH shell command prints,
as Controller Name, "Intel(R) PRO/1000 MT Network Connection". I
successfully tested DHCP and ping from the UEFI shell.
