Don't mount the dump target unless needed

Browse Source 
For fadump, this helps to reduce the risk of boot failure, and
may also help speed up the boot by a bit.

For normal kdump, this will delay the dump target mounting, and no
longer depend on systemd to do the mounting job.

And currently there is a failure that caused by some mount handling
bug with kernel and systemd that is failing the system booting:

[FAILED] Failed to mount /kdumproot/home.
See 'systemctl status kdumproot-home.mount' for details.
[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Local File Systems.
[  OK  ] Reached target Remote File Systems (Pre).
[  OK  ] Reached target Remote File Systems.
         Starting udev Coldplug all Devices...
         Starting Create Volatile Files and Directories...
         Starting Kdump Emergency...

This patch can bypass it. The fix of root cause is still WIP, but this
patch itself is a nice to have optimization so it's reasonable to do so.
