[PATCH v3 10/11] selftests/liveupdate: Add stress-sessions kexec test

[Pasha Tatashin]

Add a new test that creates 2000 LUO sessions before a kexec
reboot and verifies their presence after the reboot. This ensures
that the linked-block serialization mechanism works correctly for
a large number of sessions.
