Currently net options means either nfs or ssh dump.
Better to split these two into standalone options. That's more clear to user.
after the split, ssh dump need user specify "ssh user@host"
nfs dump need user specify "nfs host:nfsshare"

Resolves: bz821997
dracut will mount rootfs for us, so we need not pass root to fstab again here.
Here remove the root-mount line.
This will depends on the root=cmdline is right, by default kdump will
inherit it from /proc/cmdline.
Vivek: add document about the assumption for the root= cmdline issue.
