[RFC PATCH 1/5] kexec: make crashk_res, crashk_low_res and crash_notes symbols always visible

Make the forward declarations of crashk_res, crashk_low_res and
crash_notes always visible. Code referring to these symbols can then
just check for IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE), instead of requiring
conditional compilation using an #ifdef, thus preparing to increase
compile coverage and simplify the code.
