fadump: pass additional parameters for capture kernel
Since kernel commit 3416c9daa6b13 ("powerpc/fadump: pass additional
parameters when fadump is active"), fadump supports passing additional
parameters to dump capture kernel. Leverage that support here to pass
additional parameters to dump capture kernel.
Also, update fadump-howto.txt to make clear on the options that are
not relevant for fadump in /etc/sysconfig/kdump
The default bootargs to append for fadump capture kernel boot are
chosen with the intent to optimize resources and reduce memory
footprint in dump capture environment.

powerpc: update fadump sysfs node path
The fadump sysfs nodes /sys/kernel/fadump_[enabled|registered], have
been relocated to /sys/kernel/fadump/[enabled|registered] by kernel
commits d418b19f34ed ("powerpc/fadump: Reorganize /sys/kernel/fadump_*
sysfs files").
To ensure compatibility, symbolic links were added for each relocated
sysfs entry. Nonetheless, note that these symbolic links might be
removed later, as they have been deprecated by kernel commit
3f5f1f22ef10 ("Documentation/ABI: Mark /sys/kernel/fadump_* sysfs files
deprecated")
This patch updates the scripts to use the updated fadump sysfs files.

fadump: improve fadump-howto.txt about remote dump target setup
While fadump-howto.txt talks about what happens to network interface
name on setting up a remote dump target in FADump mode, it doesn't
explicitly specify the negative consequences of it. Make it explicit
and provide a recommendation to overcome the same.
