[FFe] update kexec-tools to 2.0.6 for ppc64el support

[Adam Conrad]

I would like to update kexec-tools to 2.0.6 to include ppc64el support (and bugfixes for other arches). Will attach a complete debdiff when this bugs is filed and I have a number to put in the changelog.

The changes are fairly minimal and mostly auditable (at least, for the arches we build for), and I don't forsee any regressions. Plus, this is an unseeded/unsupported package.

I don't feel comfortable visually reviewing all the changes to the x86 code here. It looks sane from a high-level view, but please make sure this gets tested on x86 before upload.

+1, *if* you make sure the existing use cases are covered on i386 and amd64.
