earlykdump: generate symlink with stable name to kernel image and iniramfs

Browse Source 
There is currently a problem with earlykdump image building, when a user
is upgrading kernel, dracut will generate new initramfs for the new
kernel, and earlykdump will install currently running version of kernel
into the initramfs, and remain the version based kernel image naming
untouched. But after a reboot the new kernel is running, and it
will try to load the image corresponding to the new kernel version by
file naming.

This patch fixes the problem by creating a symlink with unified stable
naming to the installed kernel image and initramfs, and use the symlink
instand so it will always work despite the kernel version number change.
