watchdog: softdog: Add options 'soft_reboot_cmd' and 'soft_active_on_boot'
Add module parameters 'soft_reboot_cmd' and 'soft_active_on_boot' for customizing softdog configuration; config reboot command by assigning soft_reboot_cmd, and set soft_active_on_boot to start up softdog timer at module initialization stage.
