Kairui Song e9e6a2c745 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.
