    Introduce a function to get reserved memory size

    The size of the reserved memory in the functions show_reserved_mem,
    check_crash_mem_reserved, and do_estimate are fetched from the sysfs
    node `/sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size`. However, in the case of fadump,
    the reserved area size is instead present in
    /sys/kernel/fadump/mem_reserved.

    For example:

    $ kdumpctl showmem
    kdump: Dump mode is fadump
    kdump: Reserved 0MB memory for crash kernel

    The above command showed 0MB for Reserved memory which is incorrect, the
    actual reservation was 2048MB.

    To resolve this issue a new helper function is introduced to fetch
    reserved memory size based on the dump mode. For "fadump" mode,
    it looks in `/sys/kernel/fadump/mem_reserved`, otherwise, it uses
    `/sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size`. And all functions that previously
    fetching reserved memory directly from `/sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size`
    sysfs node are now updated to use this new function to get the reserved
    memory size.

    With the fix in place, the `kdumpctl showmem` command will now display
    correct reserved memory size.

    $ kdumpctl showmem
    kdump: Dump mode is fadump
    kdump: Reserved 2048MB memory for crash kernel
