Add support core dump in common create

This commit modifies the interaction between the core dump monitor and
the BMC dump manager. Earlier, when a process managed by systemd
crashed, it generated a core dump. The core dump monitor would then
inform the dump manager about this event through a dedicated internal
D-Bus interface.

With this commit, we change this approach and leverage the common BMC
dump creation interface. Now, when a core dump is generated, the core
dump monitor requests the dump manager to create a specific BMC dump
that incorporates this core dump data.

Tests:
Create a core dump and make sure BMC dump with core
is created

phosphor-debug-collector

Phosphor Debug Collector provides mechanisms to collect various log files and system parameters. Used to troubleshoot problems in OpenBMC based systems.

One such mechanism is dreport, a script that collects debug data and packages it into an archive file.

To Build

To build this package with meson, do the following steps:

    1. meson builddir
    2. ninja -C builddir

To clean the built files run ninja -C builddir clean.

To run unit tests

Tests can be run in the CI docker container, refer local-ci-build

or with an OpenBMC x86 sdk(see below for x86 steps).

meson -Dtests=enabled build
ninja -C build test
