kho: add test for kexec handover
Testing kexec handover requires a kernel driver that will generate some
data and preserve it with KHO on the first boot and then restore that data
and verify it was preserved properly after kexec.
To facilitate such test, along with the kernel driver responsible for data
generation, preservation and restoration add a script that runs a kernel
in a VM with a minimal /init. The /init enables KHO, loads a kernel image
for kexec and runs kexec reboot. After the boot of the kexeced kernel,
the driver verifies that the data was properly preserved.
