This patch will introduce early kdump test.
It reuses the code of nfs kdump test, in order to setup 2 seperated VMs,
one(the client) for trigger the early kdump and crash, the other(the server)
for saving vmcore and check if vmcore exists. In order to minimize the
repetted code, a soft link is made to copy the same server side code.

- ssh-copy-id is bugged and not working, use a more robust way to sync
ssh keys
- systemd-resolvd will bind on port 53 so DHCP server won't work,
disable systemd-resolvd's builtin DNS server

Currently, the makedumpfile option '--message-level' is set to 1 when
dumping the vmcore, it only displays the progress indicator message,
but there are no common message and error message, it is important to
report some additional messages, especially for the error message,
which is very useful for the debugging.
In view of this, let's change the message level to 7 by default.

Now, by execute `make test-run` in tests/, kexec-tools sanity tests
will be performed using VMs. There are currently 3 test cases, for local
kdump, nfs kdump and ssh kdump.
For each test VM, the selftest framework will create a snapshot layer,
do setup as required by the test case, this ensure each test runs in a
clean VM.
This framework will install a custom systemd service that starts when
system have finished booting, and the service will do basic routine
(fetch and set boot counter, etc..), then call the test case which is
installed in /kexec-kdump-test/test.sh in VM.
Each VM will have two serial consoles, one for ordinary console usage,
one for the test communication and log. The test script will watch the
second test console to know the test status.
The test cases are located in tests/scripts/testcases, documents about
the test cases structure will be provided in following commits.
