Merge kdump-error-handler.sh into kdump.sh
kdump-error-handler.sh does nothing except calling three functions,
it can be easily merged into kdump.sh by using a parameter to run the
error handling routine.
kdump-lib-initramfs.sh was created to hold the three shared functions
and related code, so by merging these two files, kdump-lib-initramfs.sh
can be simplified by a lot.
Following up commits will clean up kdump-lib-initramfs.sh.

fadump: isolate fadump initramfs image within the default one
In case of fadump, the initramfs image has to be built to boot into
the production environment as well as to offload the active crash dump
to the specified dump target (for boot after crash). As the same image
would be used for both boot scenarios, it could not be built optimally
while accommodating both cases.
Use --include to include the initramfs image built for offloading
active crash dump to the specified dump target. Also, introduce a new
out-of-tree dracut module (99zz-fadumpinit) that installs a customized
init program while moving the default /init to /init.dracut. This
customized init program is leveraged to isolate fadump image within
the default initramfs image by kicking off default boot process
(exec /init.dracut) for regular boot scenario and activating fadump
initramfs image, if the system is booting after a crash.
If squash is available, ensure default initramfs image is also built
with squash module to reduce memory consumption in capture kernel.

Add a new hook: 92-crashkernel.install
To track and manage kernel's crashkernel usage by kernel version,
each kernel package will include a crashkernel.default containing the
default `crashkernel=` value of that kernel. So we can use a hook to
update the kernel cmdline of new installed kernel accordingly.
Put it after all other grub boot loader setup hooks, so it can simply
call grubby to modify the kernel cmdline.

[PATCH] check for invalid physical address of /proc/kcore when making ELF dumpfile
Previously when executing makedumpfile with -E option against
/proc/kcore, makedumpfile will fail:
# makedumpfile -E -d 31 /proc/kcore kcore.dump
...
write_elf_load_segment: Can't convert physaddr(ffffffffffffffff) to an offset.
makedumpfile Failed.
It's because /proc/kcore contains PT_LOAD program headers which have
physaddr (0xffffffffffffffff). With -E option, makedumpfile will
try to convert the physaddr to an offset and fails.
Skip the PT_LOAD program headers which have such physaddr.

[PATCH] Increase SECTION_MAP_LAST_BIT to 5
* Required for kernel 5.12
Kernel commit 1f90a3477df3 ("mm: teach pfn_to_online_page() about
ZONE_DEVICE section collisions") added a section flag
(SECTION_TAINT_ZONE_DEVICE) and causes makedumpfile an error on
some machines like this:
__vtop4_x86_64: Can't get a valid pmd_pte.
readmem: Can't convert a virtual address(ffffe2bdc2000000) to physical address.
readmem: type_addr: 0, addr:ffffe2bdc2000000, size:32768
__exclude_unnecessary_pages: Can't read the buffer of struct page.
create_2nd_bitmap: Can't exclude unnecessary pages.
Increase SECTION_MAP_LAST_BIT to 5 to fix this. The bit had not
been used until the change, so we can just increase the value.

Write to `/var/lib/kdump` if $KDUMP_BOOTDIR not writable
The `/boot` directory on some operating systems might be read-only.
If we cannot write to `$KDUMP_BOOTDIR` when generating the kdump
initrd, attempt to place the generated initrd at `/var/lib/kdump`
instead.

Remove the kdump error handler isolation wrapper
The wrapper is introduced in commit 002337c, according to the commit
message, the only usage of the wrapper is when dracut-initqueue calls
"systemctl start emergency" directly. In that case, emergency
is started, but not in a isolation mode, which means dracut-initqueue
is still running. On the other hand, emergency will call
"systemctl start dracut-initqueue" again when default action is dump_to_rootfs.
systemd would block on the last dracut-initqueue, waiting for the first
instance to exit, which leaves us hang.
In previous commit we added initqueue status detect in dump_to_rootfs,
so now even without the wrapper, it will not hang.
And actually, previously, with the wrapper, emergency might still hang
for like 30s. When dracut called emergency service because initqueue
timed out, dump_to_rootfs will try start initqueue again and timeout
again. Now with the wrapper removed, we can avoid these two kinds of
hangs, bacause without the isolation we can detect initqueue service
status correctly in such case.
Also remove the invalid header comments in service file, the service
is not part of systemd code. And sync the service spec with dracut.

Make dracut-squash required for kexec-tools
This patch reverts commit "Make dracut-squash a weak dep".
Although kexec-tools can work without dracut-squash, it is essential
for kdump to run properly in cases [1][2] where minimal amount of memory
consumption is expected. Thus dracut-squash is needed for it.
