Currently, KHO is controlled via debugfs interface, but once LUO is introduced, it can control KHO, and the debug interface becomes optional. Add a separate config CONFIG_KEXEC_HANDOVER_DEBUG that enables the debugfs interface, and allows to inspect the tree. Move all debugfs related code to a new file to keep the .c files clear of ifdefs.

There is already one definition for struct kho_out and a static struct kho_out early in the file. This is a second declaration and definition. And I was super confused when I saw patch 3 since it seemed to be making unrelated changes to this struct (and removing an instance of this, which should be done in this patch instead). In fact, this patch doesn't even build due to this problem. I think some patch massaging is needed to fix this all up.
