kern, arm: Dump dmesg on kernel panic/oops

Add helper functions to dump the guest kernel's dmesg buffer to a text
file in m5out. This functionality is split into two parts. First, a
dmesg dump function that can be used in other places:

void Linux::dumpDmesg(ThreadContext *, std::ostream &)

This function is used to implement two PCEvents: DmesgDumpEvent and
KernelPanic event. The only difference between the two is that the
latter produces a gem5 panic instead of a warning in addition to
dumping the kernel log.
