[Skiboot] [PATCH v7 10/22] dump: Define fadump structure

Naming convention: Linux refers MPIPL as firmware assisted dump (fadump).

This structure is shared between OPAL and payload. During fadump registration
payload will use this structure to pass kernel memory reservation details to
OPAL. OPAL will use this structure to fill MDST, MDDT table. After fadump,
OPAL uses MDRT table to fill this structure and passes this to payload via
device tree.
