fadump: avoid non-debug kernel use for fadump case
Since commit c5bdd2d8f1 ("kdump-lib: use non-debug kernels first"),
non-debug kernel is preferred, over the debug variant, as dump capture
kernel to reduce memory consumption. This works alright for kdump as
the capture kernel is loaded using kexec.
In case of fadump, regular boot loader is used to load the capture
kernel. So, the default kernel needs to be used as capture kernel as
well. But with commit c5bdd2d8f1, initrd of a different kernel is
made dump capture capable, breaking fadump's ability to capture dump
properly. Fix this by sticking with the debug variant in case of
fadump.
