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.

Recently, dracut-network drops depedency on dhcp-client which requires
ipcalc. Thus the dependency chain
"kexec-tools -> dracut-network -> dhcp-client -> ipcalc"
is broken. When NIC is configured to a static IP, kexec-tools depended
on "ipcalc -m" to get netmask. This commit implements the shell
equivalent of "ipcalc -m".
The following test code shows cal_netmask_by_prefix is consistent with
"ipcalc -m",
#!/bin/bash
. dracut-module-setup.sh
for i in {0..128}; do
mask_expected=$(ipcalc -m fe::/$i| cut -d"=" -f2)

Currently, when generating a kdump initramfs, mkdumprd will determine
how much disk space is available, if the dump target's available space
is not greater than the total system memory, mkdumprd will print a
warning to remind that there might not be enough space to save a vmcore.
Some users are complaining that mkdumprd overestimates the needed size.
But actually, the warning covers extreme scenarios such as the slab
explodes with non-zero data or a full vmcore, etc. Therefore, need to
prevent users from having minimum disk space for crash dump.
In view of this, add some descriptions to clarify it in mkdumprd man

40network: introduce ip=either6 option
But it turns out needless.
On a sensible ipv6 network environment, DHCPv6 can not work properly alone,
because DHCPv6 protocol has no info about the gateway.
An reasonalbe process of ipv6 address set up should look like
host send: Router Solicitation
router reply: Router Advertisements
"Router Advertisements" carries many info like gateway, and if it has
other-config flag set, it carries DNS info etc. As for DHCPv6 address
allocation, it will only start if "Router Advertisements" has the 'managed'
flag set, which directs the host to start a stateful address allocation
from DHCPv6 server.
