  Add systemd's kdump service command-line regardless if user provides

Bug description:
  Since Xenial release, Ubuntu relies on systemd as its init system -
  there's a kdump service to prevent some other services to
  unnecessarily start in kdump environment.

  Problem: if we add something to KDUMP_CMDLINE_APPEND, the entry for
  kdump service, "systemd.unit=kdump-tools.service" is removed from the
  command-line. The user manually needs to add that, and this seems
  highly prone to error.

  We propose here to decouple the "systemd.unit=kdump-tools.service"
  parameter from KDUMP_CMDLINE_APPEND, so if user wants really to remove
  this option, they should used KDUMP_CMDLINE instead.
