debug: add parameters to prevent entering debug mode on errors
On non-developer devices kgdb prevents CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT from rebooting the device after a panic. Add module parameters debug_core.break_on_exception and debug_core.break_on_panic to allow skipping debug on panics and exceptions respectively. Both default to true to preserve existing behavior.
