[PATCH] dracut.sh: allow setting i18n_install_all in command options

[PATCH] dracut.sh: allow setting i18n_install_all in command options

[Dangyi Liu]

From: Dave Young <dyoung-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>

During kdump, we need a way to disable i18n_install_all forcedly in
order to reduce memory usage, especially on PowerPC machines with 64k
pages, which would efficiently save upto 60MB memory.
