Enhanced debugging of anaconda

Hi,

after Ales enabled the core dumps, I went a bit further and moved the coredump stuff to init, so we can get core files also when loader sigsegvs.

Moreover, when in this mode (which I called Development mode) init will also spawn a shell to make it possible to get all the logs and core files and transfer them to another machine. (mount, ls and cp are present in initrd)

With this patch, you can enable this behaviour by passing the 'devel' argument on the kernel boot prompt. Both shell and coredumps are disabled when not in this devel mode so it won't disrupt automatic tests.

What do you think?
