25b61f4a2e Implement support for ARM and ARM64 raw RAM dumpfiles. One or
more "ramdump" files may be entered on the crash command line
in an ordered pair format consisting of the RAM dump filename
and the starting physical address expressed in hexadecimal,
connected with an ampersand:

  $ crash vmlinux ramdump@address [ramdump@address]

A temporary ELF header will be created in /var/tmp, and the
combination of the header and the ramdump file(s) will be handled
like a normal ELF vmcore.  The ELF header will only exist during
the crash session.  If desired, an optional "-o <filename>"
may be entered to create a permanent ELF vmcore file from the
ramdump file(s).
