Consider switching to systemd-coredump for default kernel core dumps

Smaller companies probably have some one in the team with access, in most
scenarios. Others, when all hope is lost, you can still get your dump, by
reaching out to your admins. Which is the point of the core dump anyway in
most production circumstances - to be able to provide the final frontier of
the problem if and when logs and traces fail. Swallowing it instead makes
no sense to me.
