[PATCH 4/5] Store vmcoreinfo data into a kdump-compressed dumpfile.

By applying this patch, makedumpfile takes vmcoreinfo data from
/proc/vmcore and stores the data into a dumpfile in the kdump-
compressed fomat. By the next patch, makedumpfile takes the data
from a dumpfile in the kdump-compressed format and uses the data
for re-filtering.
