powerpc/xmon: make dumping log buffer contents more reliable
Log buffer entries that are too long for dump_log_buf()'s small local buffer are: * silently discarded when a single-line entry is too long; kmsg_dump_get_line() returns true but sets &len to 0. * silently truncated to the last fitting new line when a multi-line entry is too long, e.g. register dumps from __show_regs(); this seems undetectable via the kmsg_dump API. xmon_printf()'s internal buffer is already 1KB; enlarge dump_log_buf()'s own buffer to match and make it statically allocated. Verified that this allows complete printing of register dumps on ppc64le with both CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME=y and CONFIG_PRINTK_CALLER=y.
