RFC 7440 Support

Asked by patpat

TFTP windowsize option (RFC 7440) provides faster TFTP transfers for network boot environments.

Red Hat 7.5 implemented Client/Server RFC 7440 support ,
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html-single/7.5_release_notes/1

UEFI edk2 scheduled Client RFC 7440 support released on Nov 2018
https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II-Release-Planning1

RHEL/CentOS RFC 7440 already coded patch applies over tftp-hpa-5.2.tar.gz and it is publicly available here
https://git.centos.org/tree/rpms!tftp.git/c72
https://git.centos.org/blob/rpms!tftp.git/c7/SOURCES!tftp-rfc7440-windowsize.patch

Any plan on getting this feature supported by Ubuntu TFTP-HPA packages?
