Merge branch 'netconsole-enable-compile-time-configuration'

Breno Leitao says:

====================
netconsole: Enable compile time configuration

Enable netconsole features to be set at compilation time. Create two
Kconfig options that allow users to set extended logs and release
prepending features at compilation time.

The first patch de-duplicates the initialization code, and the second
patch adds the support in the de-duplicated code, avoiding touching two
different functions with the same change.
