Code Issues Proposed changes

Increase maximum preserved crash dump vmcore file size to 5Gi

Browse Source 
The current crashDumpMgr service has several filesystem
protection methods that can result in the auto deletion
of a crashdump vmcore file. One is a hard cap of 3Gi.

This max vmcore size is too small for some applications.
Crash dump vmcore files can get big with servers that have
a lot of memory and big apps.

This update modifies the crashDumpMgr service file
max_size override to 5Gi.

Test Plan:

PASS: Verify change functions as expected
PASS: Verify change is inserted after patch apply
PASS: Verify crash dump under-size threshold handling
PASS: Verify crash dump over-size threshold handling
PASS: Verify change is reverted after patch removal
