Allow to update kexec-tools using virt-customize for cloud base image

Resolves: bz2089871

Currently, kexec-tools can't be updated using virt-customize because
older version of kdumpctl can't acquire instance lock for the
get-default-crashkernel subcommand. The reason is /var/lock is linked to
/run/lock which however doesn't exist in the case of virt-customize.

This patch fixes this problem by using /tmp/kdump.lock as the lock
file if /run/lock doesn't exist.

Note
1. The lock file is now created in /run/lock instead of /var/run/lock since
   Fedora has adopted adopted /run [2] since F15.
2. %pre scriptlet now always return success since package update won't
   be blocked
