powerpc/crash: stop watchdogs before booting kdump kernel

On pseries LPAR systems, watchdog timers configured from userspace can
remain active after a kernel panic. When a panic triggers kdump, the
crashing kernel jumps directly to the kdump kernel without stopping
active watchdogs. As a result, the watchdogs remain active after the
kdump kernel starts.

If dump capture takes longer than the watchdog timeout, PHYP resets the
LPAR before the dump is fully captured, causing dump capture to fail.

Fix this by issuing the `H_WATCHDOG` hcall during the crash shutdown
sequence to stop all active watchdogs before booting the kdump kernel.
