Olivier Singla c70d8bca9f [baseimage]: kdump support (#3722)
* In the event of a kernel crash, we need to gather as much information
as possible to understand and identify the root cause of the crash.
Currently, the kernel does not provide much information, which make
kernel crash investigation difficult and time consuming.

Fortunately, there is a way in the kernel to provide more information
in the case of a kernel crash. kdump is a feature of the Linux kernel
that creates crash dumps in the event of a kernel crash. This PR
will add kermel kdump support.

An extension to the CLI utilities config and show is provided to
configure and manage kdump:
 - enable / disable kdump functionality
 - configure kdump (how many kernel crash logs can be saved, memory
   allocated for capture kernel)
 - view kernel crash logs
