[PATCH v5 2/9] crash_dump: Make elfcorehdr address/size symbols always visible

Make the forward declarations of elfcorehdr_addr and elfcorehdr_size,
and the definitions of ELFCORE_ADDR_MAX and ELFCORE_ADDR_ERR always
available, like is done for phys_initrd_start and phys_initrd_size.
Code referring to these symbols can then just check for
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP), instead of requiring conditional
compilation using an #ifdef, thus preparing to increase compile
coverage.
