Tried here to give a brief reasoning on why we followed Debian;
or at least, have it explicitely mentioned in the comments, also
mentioning Ubuntu. These parameters make sense since Debian/Ubuntu
parameter approach is quite simple, hence mimic'ed here.

As part of the upstreaming effort, we need to add some extra tunings
in the package. Especially related to GRUB autosetting and Pstore
memory settings:
(a) Currently the ramoops record size and memory amount are hardcoded
in the kdump-load script - we change it here, by having these settings
on the kdump config file;
(b) GRUB autosetting is pretty simple and everything is hardcoded.
We hereby add a bunch of configurable settings in the kdump conf file,
in order we can customize the GRUB handling, to make it work in both
Arch and SteamOS.
While at it, fixed some related comments and renamed some variables,
usually dropping KDUMP_ name when it applies to pstore as well.
Also, bumped the crashkernel memory from 192M to 256M - recent kernels
demand more memory, let's play safe.

This is somewhat an intrusive change, but necessary if we want
to upstream the kdump tooling while allowing great extent of
customizations on SteamOS.
With this change, we have now a kdump.d folder on /usr/share,
that holds configuration files in the same way sysctl.d does.
In other words, we can easily override default settings by
just having more configuration files, which are sourced
following natural name sorting, i.e., we have now the concept
of config file precedence in kdump.
Our default config file is called 00-default, so we eventually
might have a 01-steamos e.g., with Deck's custom settings.
This is planned to other package though.
