#### Why I did it
If a process limits using nodes by mempolicy/cpusets, and those nodes become memory exhaustion status, one process may be killed by oom-killer.
No panic occurs in this case, because other node's memory may be free.
This means system total status may be not fatal yet.
#### How I did it
Remove 'vm.panic_on_oom=1' kernel flag from 'vmcore-sysctl.conf '
Create new file to "sysctl.d" with desired panic conditions.
It will trigger a vmcore dump using kdump-tools on these situations.

The default /etc/default/kdump-tools file provided by the kdump-tools
package doesn't set a value for KDUMP_CMDLINE_APPEND.
The default kdump command line arguments need to be set in order
to extend them to use additional arguments required for SONiC
platforms.

- Allow platform specific reboot script to be called after crash kernel has
finished copying the kernel vmcore
- Disable pcie advanced features when running crash kernel. This improves
reliability of the crash kernel to successfully create a vmcore and also
reboot
- Allow crash kernel to reboot if a panic is seen while it is generating a
vmcore
- Fix crash kernel to use the SONiC specific /usr/local/bin/reboot script
instead of the Linux reboot command /sbin/reboot
- Use sonic_platform as the kernel command line parameter to pass platform identifier string
