printk: Add printk.console_no_auto_verbose boot parameter
console_verbose() increases console loglevel to CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_MOTORMOUTH, which provides more information to debug a panic/oops. Unfortunately, in Arista we maintain some DUTs (Device Under Test) that are configured to have 9600 baud rate. While verbose console messages have their value to post-analyze crashes, on such setup they: - may prevent panic/oops messages being printed - take too long to flush on console resulting in watchdog reboot In all our setups we use kdump which saves dmesg buffer after panic, so in reality those extra messages on console provide no additional value, but rather add risk of not getting to __crash_kexec(). Provide printk.console_no_auto_verbose boot parameter, which allows to switch off printk being verbose on oops/panic/lockdep.
