Double-commit from master: sonic-net/sonic-buildimage#16224
Why I did it
Enabling kdump by default for cisco-8000 by setting crashkernel cmdline arg in device installer.conf.
After bootup, sonic-kdump-config wipes crashkernel arg from /host/grub/grub.cfg, and resets USE_KDUMP in /etc/default/kdump-tools, so kdump will not be enabled on subsequent reboot.
How I did it
Setting kdump enable config as part of init_cfg.json for cisco-8000 platforms.
How to verify it
Install SONiC image with kdump enabled by default (device/hwsku/installer.conf), then reboot.
Kdump config should persist on subsequent reboots and kdump loaded during bootup.
