dump: Add command interface for kdump-raw formats
The QMP dump API represents the dump format as an enumeration. Add three
new enumerators, one for each supported kdump compression, each named
"kdump-raw-*".
For the HMP command line, rather than adding a new flag corresponding to
each format, it seems more human-friendly to add a single flag "-R" to
switch the kdump formats to "raw" mode. The choice of "-R" also
correlates nicely to the "makedumpfile -R" option, which would serve to
reassemble a flattened vmcore.
