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.

kdumpctl: Add kdumpctl estimate
Add a rough esitimation support, currently, following memory usage are
checked by this sub command:
- System RAM
- Kdump Initramfs size
- Kdump Kernel image size
- Kdump Kernel module size
- Kdump userspace user and other runtime allocated memory (currently
simply using a fixed value: 64M)
- LUKS encryption memory usage
The output of kdumpctl estimate looks like this:
# kdumpctl estimate
Reserved crashkernel: 256M
Recommanded crashkernel: 160M
Kernel image size: 47M
Kernel modules size: 12M
Initramfs size: 19M
Runtime reservation: 64M
Large modules:
xfs: 1892352
nouveau: 2318336
And if the kdump target is encrypted:
# kdumpctl estimate
Encrypted kdump target requires extra memory, assuming using the keyslot with minimun memory requirement
Reserved crashkernel: 256M
Recommanded crashkernel: 655M
Kernel image size: 47M
Kernel modules size: 12M
Initramfs size: 19M
Runtime reservation: 64M
LUKS required size: 512M
Large modules:
xfs: 1892352
nouveau: 2318336
WARNING: Current crashkernel size is lower than recommanded size 655M.
The "Recommanded" value is calculated based on memory usages mentioned
above, and will be adjusted accodingly to be no less than the value provided
by kdump_get_arch_recommend_size.
